A Nightmare’s Just a Dream Songtext
von Tusmørke

My third eye was wrenched open
Strange things I beheld
A host of demons dancing
Colossal forms of eld

I turned to my companions
They were as gone as me
All swept away on dark waves
In vessels separately

My third eye was all bloodshot
My ship made water fast
A mighty storm wind blowing
I tried to cut the mast

On a down and still descending
Down a spiral never-ending
I am broken beyond mending
I receive but I′m not sending


A nightmare's just a dream but this is real
Surreal, surreal, surreal
A nightmare′s just a dream but this is worse
Perverse, perverse, perverse

A nightmare's just a dream but this is real
Surreal, surreal, surreal
A nightmare's just a dream but this is worse
Perverse, perverse, perverse

And so my mind was bending
I begged it wouldn′t break
I cried as all foundations
Would undulate and quake

The tiny lamp of reason
Would flicker, grow and fade
I sadly contemplated
The price that I had paid

How will it be from now on?
What should I say or do?
Tomorrow, oh, tomorrow
When will this trip be through?


On a down and still descending
Down a spiral never-ending
I am broken beyond mending
I receive but I′m not sending

A nightmare's just a dream but this is real
Surreal, surreal, surreal
A nightmare′s just a dream but this is worse
Perverse, perverse, perverse

A nightmare's just a dream but this is real
Surreal, surreal, surreal
A nightmare′s just a dream but this is worse
Perverse, perverse, perverse

Pan, IAO, IAO, Pan, Pan!
