Nightmare!
|
|
Now your Nightmare comes to life.
|
|
Dragged you down below
|
Down to the Devil's show
|
To be his guest forever
|
Peace of mind is less than never!
|
|
Hate to twist your mind
|
But God ain't on your side
|
An old acquaintance severed
|
Burn the world, your last endeavor.
|
|
Flesh is burning, you can smell it in the air
|
'Cause men like you have such an easy soul to steal.
|
|
So stand in line while they ink numbers in your head
|
You're now a slave until the end of time here
|
Nothing stops the madness turning
|
Haunting, yearning, pull the trigger!
|
|
You should have known, the price of evil
|
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
|
Oh, it's your fuckin' Nightmare!
|
|
While your Nightmare comes to life.
|
|
Can't wake up & sweat
|
'Cause it ain't over yet
|
Still dancin' with your demons
|
Victim of your own creation.
|
|
Beyond the will to fight
|
Where all that's wrong is right
|
Where hate don't need a reason
|
Loathing self-assassination.
|
|
You've been lied to just to rape you of your sight & now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel.
|
So sedated as they medicate your brain & while you slowly go insane they tell ya
|
"Given with the best intentions, help you with your complications!"
|
|
You should have known the price of evil
|
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.
|
No one to call, everybody to fear
|
Your tragic fate is lookin' so clear, yeah.
|
Ooh, it's your fuckin' Nightmare, ha ha ha ha!
|
|
Fight, not to fail, not to fall, or you'll end up like the others.
|
Die, die again, drenched in sin, with no respect for another.
|
|
Down, feel the fire, feel the hate, your pain is what we desire.
|
Lost, hit the wall, watch you crawl, such a replaceable liar.
|
|
And I know you hear their voices, callin' from above
|
And I know they may seem real, these signals of love
|
But our life's made up of choices, some without appeal
|
They took for granted your soul & it's ours now to steal
|
As your Nightmare comes to life.
|
|
You should have known, the price of evil
|
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.
|
No one to call, everybody to fear
|
Your tragic fate is lookin' so clear, yeah.
|
Oh, it's your fuckin' Nightmare!
