Bleed: I Must Be Dreaming

“How can I pretend that I don’t see
What you hide so carelessly?
I saw her bleed,
You heard me breathe.
And I froze inside myself and turned away:
I must be dreaming.

We all live and
We all die but
That does not begin to justify you.

It’s not what it seems,
Not what you think,
No, I must be dreaming.
It’s only in my mind,
Not the real life.
No, I must be dreaming.

Help! You know I’ve got to tell someone,
Tell them what I know you’ve done.
I fear you,
But spoken fears can’t come true.

We all live and
We all die but
That does not begin to justify you.

It’s not what it seems,
Not what you think,
No, I must be dreaming.
It’s only in my mind,
Not the real life.
No, I must be dreaming.”

It’s been, like, forever since I wanted to take this photo. Bleed (I Must Be Dreaming) is one of my favourite Evanescence songs, and since I was playing with blood and taking other related photos, I decided it was time to go for it too. I kept it as the last one, for it’s my favourite from this shoot. And I want compliments for managing to do everything without staining my white shirt!
