Watching a Nightmare

From an early sequel of “Nightmare on Elm Street”






I cringe when the blond woman screams
Reveal her where-about to the ruthless reaper of souls.
This nightmare will be her final dream.
I cringe when the blond woman screams.
Death has a face that can not be seen.
He stole her breath with steel, so cold.
I cringe when the blond woman screams
Reveal her where-about to the ruthless reaper of souls.
