Dreams & Nightmares Lyrics

[Intro: Teddy]
Teddy, Teddy

[Chorus: Teddy, Lil Peep & Both]
It's my fairytale, dreams and nightmares (Yeah)
Sippin' on this potion, hope it make me see clear
Baby, fifth pocket pills help me sleep well
Champagne, nightmares, they recount
It's my fairytale, dreams and nightmares
Sippin' on this potion, hope it make me see clear (Make me see clear, yeah)
Baby, fifth pocket pills help me sleep well (Yeah, yeah)
Champagne, nightmares, they recount (Uh)

[Verse 1: Lil Peep]
I been so patient
But I just can't watch and stand by
Look ma, we made it
Tears fall while she watch the bands fly

My best friends know that I can't lie (Yeah)
Her best friends swear I'm a good guy (Swear I'm a good guy)
They don't know about my bad side
Nightmares still here from last night

[Chorus: Teddy, Lil Peep & Both]
It's my fairytale, dreams and nightmares (Yeah, yeah)
Sippin' on this potion, hope it make me see clear (Make me see clear)
Baby, fifth pocket pills help me sleep well (Help me sleep well)
Champagne, nightmares, they recount
It's my fairytale, dreams and nightmares
Sippin' on this potion, hope it make me see clear (Make me see clear, yeah)
Baby, fifth pocket pills help me sleep well (Yeah, yeah)
Champagne, nightmares, they recount (Yeah)
[Verse 2: Teddy]
Doctor just said that I need help
Told mama gotta fix these problems, please, I just need help (Yeah)
'Cause fifth pocket pills help me sleep well
Need you by my side, baby, you help me sleep well (You)
Pour a four in the cup, help me catch a vibe
Thinkin' 'bout her love lately helps me, get me high
'Cause, baby, fifth pocket pills help me sleep well
Fifth pocket pills help me sleep well (Yeah)

[Chorus: Teddy]
It's my fairytale, dreams and nightmares (Yeah)
Sippin' on this potion, hope it make me see clear
Baby, fifth pocket pills help me sleep well
Champagne, nightmares, they recount
It's my fairytale, dreams and nightmares
Sippin' on this potion, hope it make me see clear (Yeah)
Baby, fifth pocket pills help me sleep well (Yeah, yeah)
Champagne, nightmares, they recount (Yeah)

[Outro: Lil Peep]
Yeah
Fairytales, dreams, and nightmares
They make me see clear
Why, why
Pop, pop

Genius Answer

first off, I wanna thank everyone who helped bring [“Dreams & Nightmares” and “Nightmares”] to their final form. From the producers, engineers, friends, Liza and of course Peep. the songs have helped me grow as [an] artist, but more importantly, a person. I remember the first time I showed Peep Nightmares, he instantly loved it. That night, we recorded his verse in my studio with Peep, Makonnen and their friends. I was hyped beyond words. That night, I went home and recorded Dreams & Nightmares and that night Peep recorded his verse that second night, that’s why I love the idea of these songs living together forever! thank you again to everyone and all the fans for waiting 5 years. love you with all my heart.

RIP Lil Peep

Love, Teddy
