A Bad Dream Lyrics Artist(Band):Keane
over every town up and down the line? I'll die in the clouds above and you that I defend, I do not love. I wake up, it's a bad dream, No one on my side, I was fighting But I just feel too tired to be fighting, guess I'm not the fighting kind. Where will I meet my fate? Baby I'm a man, I was born to hate. And when will I meet my end? In a better time you could be my friend. [chorus] I wake up, it's a bad dream, No one on my side, I was fighting But I just feel too tired to be fighting, guess I'm not the fighting kind. Wouldn't mind it if you were by my side But you're long gone, yeah you're long gone now. Where do we go? I don't even know, My strange old face, And I'm thinking about those days, And I'm thinking about those days. I wake up, it's a bad dream, No one on my side, I was fighting But I just feel too tired to be fighting, guess I'm not the fighting kind. Wouldn't mind it if you were by my side But you're long gone, yeah you're long gone now. If you find some error in A Bad Dream Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You.

Review about A Bad Dream Bad feeling... | Reviewer: kIdd0h | 3/26/2008 meanings | Reviewer: Tom C. | 3/6/2008 i was always a keane fan but never really pay attention to this song until one morning after 6 years of a good relationship(i thought) my girlfriend called me saying it's over because she found a more "interesting" guy to be with. i fought for the love but lost. i gave up everything for her and now i have no one or nothing to lean on, i feel like life stop. The way I see it | Reviewer: MKlee | 2/27/2008 After reading the poem "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death" by Yeats, I feel pretty confident that this song is about his(by his, I mean the guy who is being described in the song) lost friend. There are 3 paragraphs that starts with I wake up~~, which means the present time. He has survived the war, and I figured this out with the lyrics "My strange old face". The other 3paragraphs that starts with 1Why~ and 2 Where~. First two parts are the time when he fought up in the clouds with the German forces, which means the past. Until the end of the paragraph3, "In a better time you could be my friend", the pilot who fought alongside him was still alive. Even though he didn't know his name or whatever, at that moment they were friends(or this pilot also could be the German fighter pilot, but not likely) Now, with the paragraph 5, all his thoughts comes back to the present time, missing his dead friend. and I also heard that Keane wrote this song after reading the poem, "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death". A lonely impulse of delight("An Irish Airman Foresees His Death",line 11), which I think echoes with the lyrics "I was born to hate", drove him to fight. Now that could be the sheer fun of flying, but fun of licensed killing(delight). I think Keane interpreted the word "delight" as a delight in killing, because I also believe there is a part of human nature that is evil, which tells us to kill the living. Well this is my interpretation of the song, could be wrong, heh. :] W. B. Yeats | Reviewer: Pixie Stick | 11/4/2007 Like Bruno said, "An Irish Airman Forsees His Death" is an amazing poem.... My personal favorite! It was written by William Butler Yeats, if anyone cares... amazing track | Reviewer: JohnK | 11/3/2007 Sally, do you have an email address I could contact you on?
