The Nightmare Lyrics

As daylight dies up in the sky
Unease increases in my mind
The spectre of that fateful night
Comes creeping 'til it's plain in sight
Intangible, as if a dream,
And yet as dreadful as it is real.

Unchain the memories
Unleash the pain

"No sooner than you close your eyes
The hunt resumes, revitalized
And every horror you've repressed
is back again, your slumber to infest."

And every night it comes back to you
And you relive it again, you're in a loop
Stuck on repeat it comes back to you
And so the nightmare goes on forever

"Your mortal tears are futile, see:

You were the one to call for me
When I consumed your memories
Now I am you, and you are me."

"I reign over the darkness
and I reign over the night
You are mine to claim and persecute
Your fear is my delight"


And every night it comes back to you
And you relive it again, you're in a loop
Stuck on repeat it comes back to you
And so the nightmare goes on forever

They follow me from dream to dream
Crawl into every scenery
And every single sunset I will see
A ticket back to misery
