Atrocious Nightmares
When you fall asleep
That's when it starts
Explosions and screams
Terrorize your heart
As your panic grows
The blood flows
Through the streets
Atrocious nightmares
Never leave you alone
When you fall asleep
A bundle of Love
My cradle of sweet
I want to be the one
I have to be the one
Baby, let me be the sponge
Absorbs all your pain
Arms
Wrapped around you
Protects you again
Baby, let me be the rope
Saves you from a fall
Daddy
Standing by you
Giving it his all
When you fall asleep
That's when it begins
Hysteria and mayhem
Spread 'neath your skin
As your fear mounts
The dead body counts
Jump like wounded beasts
Atrocious nightmares
Never leave you alone
When you fall asleep
A bundle of love
My cradle of sweet
I want to be the one
I have to be the one
Baby, let me be the sponge
Absorbs all your pain
Arms
Wrapped around you
Protects you again
Baby, let me be the rope
Saves you from a fall
Daddy
Standing by you
Giving it his all
I want to be the one
I have to be the one
Don't you see?
I'm the one.
