Nightmare
Standing alone in the night
Dark all around
Something doesn't seem quite right
I hear a sound
Like a werewolf howl
Coming from all around
And the noise of an owl
Piercing red eyes appear
Lightning strikes from the sky
Death is seeming rather near
And I don't want to die
Am I dreaming?
I hope I'm dreaming?
Nightmare
Confronting everything that I fear
Nightmare
The seeming reality of everything I see and hear
Down into the ground I fall
Deep into the dark
Evil says my name, I hear it call
The devil's made his mark
I run, through the endless cave
Stumbling through to find there's no way out
Everything is what I've gave
I've given up, all I want to do is scream and shout
Nightmare!
This is everything I fear
Nightmare!
I think the end is coming near
I hope I'm dreaming
I wish I was dreaming
But I know this is my fate
Lucifer, he can't wait
To take my soul away
There's nothing more I can do or say
Nightmare!
Losing everything I ever cared for
Nightmare!
Losing myself even more
Nightmare!
Nightmare!
Nightmare!
What I never want
Nightmare!
My mind is does haunt
It don't care
What I fear
Cause with it, it grows
I'm hating everything it knows
I wish it wasn't real
Everything I see and feel
But it's true
And just like a
Nightmare!
