two: A Little Nightmares II Song

Waiting for the end. Just a stitch away
The nail marks on the walls, one for every day
You're cold and weak, alone. No one's coming for you
Fear has taken hold. Nothing left to do but
Starve and bleed and rot in the morbid fable
No way out but death and the sewing table
Some got shot and some were decapitated
Some saw their hopes be evaporated

And if you think you've seen your nightmares come to life
You better prepare for the day they do
Humanity's a poison that'll cut you like a knife
But this nightmare you've been dreaming
Wasn't meant for two

Take my hand and don't look behind you
Cause we can't go back. I won't let your demons find you
Rusty teeth. A field full of bloody smiles
Guts and grime congealed into gory piles
Dead limbs sway... the crack of a hunting rifle
No one gets away. Hold your breath or life'll
End right here. A stain where your heart was beating
A prayer you'll lie there and die repeating

Your little nightmares won't stay shackled to the night
So kill your dreams, or they'll come true
These foul machinations won't go down without a fight
But the horror that you're facing
Wasn't meant for two

(Stay awake)
(Stay awake)

The world's but a stage and we're puppets on a string
The pawns left to die tend to turn on the king
Through pain, we survive, and chaos, we learn
To stand by and watch the world burn

Frozen in a dream. Not a soul can wake you
Bury every scream, lest the nightmares take you
Hear the siren call viewers put their hope in
One by one they fall -- Eyes shut, blank faces open
Shadows reign a world left to eat itself
A pale gray train. The nightmare repeats itself
A tall, thin man appears from a premonition
All eyes and ears trapped by his transmission

You can't outrun the very shadows you create
The enemy you always knew
And if you hide, they'll find you, so it's time to change your fate
But the ending of the story
Wasn't meant for two
