Nightmare Songtext
von From Ashes to New

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
I 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've known the price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
Oh, it′s your fucking nightmare
While your nightmare comes to life


Can′t wake up in sweat 'cause it ain′t over yet
Still dancing 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
And now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel
So sedated as they medicate your brain
And while you slowly go insane they tell you:
"Given with the best intentions, help you with your complications"

You should′ve 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 looking so clear, yeah
Ooh, it's your fucking nightmare

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 calling 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, and it′s ours now to steal
As your nightmare comes to life


You should've 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 looking so clear, yeah
Oh, it′s your fucking nightmare
