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 f..cking 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 f..cking nightmare
Ha, ha, ha, ha
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
(Hit)
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 f..cking nightmare
