Nightmares

Nightmares are falling from the sky
Nobody knows the reasons why
They want to gamble with our lives
It's a matter of time

Until there's nothing left to save
Live in the fallout every day
Because of the actions of a few
The countdown's underway

Here it comes now

Nightmares replace our hopes and dreams
Our vivid futures now unseen
Now the horizon is obscure
This land reduced to dirt

The brightest futures start to fade
The bluest skies now turn to grey
Like a disease and without a cure
Our loss is for their gain

But that's ok
Because I did the best
I could today and before
And I'm alright
With all the complex truths
And simple lies you've told

Here we go now

But that's ok
Because I've lost before
And feel the same you do
But I'm alive
And I will strive for more
Than to survive
Will you?

Here we go now
Here it comes now

If I could lay myself to sleep
With all these voices that I keep
Inside my head I'd put to rest
All that makes me weak

Cause we live in scary times for sure
But there are some things still good and pure
Do all you can to make it last
Until the sun comes up again
