Nightmare Lyrics

[01:01.28] Nightmare
[01:05.18] (Now your nightmare comes to life)
[01:10.40] Dragged you down below
[01:12.10] Down to the devil's show
[01:13.96] To be his guest forever
[01:15.73] Peace of mind is less than never
[01:18.06] Hate to twist your mind
[01:19.62] But God ain't on your side
[01:21.45] An old acquaintance severed
[01:23.15] Burn the world, your last endeavor
[01:25.28] Flesh is burning, you can smell it in the air
[01:27.97] 'Cause men like you have such an easy soul to steal (steal)
[01:32.46] So stand in line while they ink numbers in your head
[01:35.37] You're now a slave until the end of time here
[01:37.96] Nothing stops the madness turning, haunting, yearning
[01:40.62] Pull the trigger
[01:41.91] You should have known the price of evil
[01:49.15] And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
[01:56.14] Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
[02:02.38] (While your nightmare comes to life)
[02:07.65] Can't wake up in sweat
[02:09.49] 'Cause it ain't over yet
[02:11.02] Still dancing with your demons
[02:12.98] Victim of your own creation
[02:15.03] Beyond the will to fight
[02:16.68] Where all that's wrong is right
[02:18.75] Where hate don't need a reason
[02:20.33] Loathing self-assassination
[02:22.68] You've been lied to just to rape you of your sight
[02:25.28] And now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel (feel)
[02:29.75] So sedated as they medicate your brain
[02:32.66] And while you slowly go insane, they tell you
[02:35.06] "Given with the best intentions
[02:36.96] Help you with your complications"
[02:39.36] You should have known the price of evil
[02:46.22] And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
[02:53.99] No one to call, everybody to fear
[03:01.03] Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah
[03:08.35] Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
[03:15.94]
[04:09.14] Fight (fight)
[04:10.28] Not to fail (fail)
[04:12.03] Not to fall (fall)
[04:13.92] Or you'll end up like the others
[04:16.54] Die (die)
[04:17.81] Die again (die)
[04:19.58] Drenched in sin (sin)
[04:21.47] With no respect for another
[04:25.38]
[04:34.92] Down (down)
[04:36.23] Feel the fire (fire)
[04:38.12] Feel the hate (hate)
[04:39.71] Your pain is what we desire
[04:42.39] Lost (lost)
[04:43.61] Hit the wall (wall)
[04:45.43] Watch you crawl (crawl)
[04:47.27] Such a replaceable liar
[04:51.26] And I know you hear their voices
[04:55.62] (Calling from above)
[04:58.62] And I know they may seem real
[05:03.38] (These signals of love)
[05:05.79] But our life's made up of choices
[05:10.40] (Some without appeal)
[05:12.53] They took for granted, your soul
[05:16.87] And it's ours now to steal
[05:21.66] (As your nightmare comes to life)
[05:27.29] You should have known the price of evil
[05:34.32] And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
[05:41.98] No one to call, everybody to fear
[05:49.08] Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah
[05:56.36] Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
[06:01.89]
