[Verse 1: JR Bareis]
On my own
Sinking in the ocean
My new home
Drowning in emotion

[Pre-Chorus: Brian "Head" Welch]
Living the dream
Living the life
Living it up in the nightmare
Falling in love
Falling apart
Sweeping the pieces of my broken heart
Living the dream
Living the life
Living it up in the nightmare
Falling in love
Falling apart
Sweeping the pieces of—

[Chorus: Brian "Head" Welch]
Got my own my life
It's my addiction
In my own time
It's my affliction

[Verse 2: JR Bareis]
Have my heart
See inside the chambers
Lovely, dark and dangerous

[Pre-Chorus: Brian "Head" Welch]
Living the dream
Living the life
Living it up in the nightmare
Falling in lovе
Falling apart
Sweeping the pieces of my brokеn heart
Living the dream
Living the life
Living it up in the nightmare
Falling in love
Falling apart
Sweeping the pieces of—

[Chorus: Brian "Head" Welch & JR Bareis]
Got my own my life
It's my addiction
In my own time
It's my affliction

[Post-Chorus: Brian "Head" Welch & JR Bareis]
Falling further down into my nightmare
Fighting for control, I'm getting nowhere


[Bridge: Brian "Head" Welch]
Living the dream!
Living the life!
Living it up in the nightmare!
Falling in love!
Falling apart!
Sweeping the pieces of my broken heart!

[Chorus: Brian "Head" Welch & JR Bareis]
Got my own my life
It's my addiction
In my own time
It's my affliction
Got my own my life
It's my addiction
In my own time
It's my affliction

[Post-Chorus: Brian "Head" Welch & JR Bareis]
Falling further down into my nightmare
Fighting for control, I'm getting nowhere
