Nightmare - Lyrics

Nightmare
Now your nightmare comes to life

Dragged ya 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 (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
It's your fuckin' nightmare
(While your nightmare comes to life)

Can't wake up and 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 
and now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel (feel)
So sedated as they medicate your brain and 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 looking so clear, yeah
It's your fuckin' nightmare

Fight (fight) - not to fail (fail), not to fall (fall) or you'll end up like the others
Die (die) - die again (die), drenched in sin (sin), with no respect for another

Down (down) - feel the fire (fire), feel the hate (hate), your pain is what we desire
Lost (lost) - hit the wall (wall), watch you crawl (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 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 looking so clear, yeah
It's your fuckin' nightmare
