Mary Shelley's Nightmare
See there's a man and he's a runaway
Come hear his story why he couldn't stay
He had to leave home
He had to go away
He never fit into the world we know
He never understood how the flow
Of interaction
Among people should go
So he's a run-a, run-a, run-a, run-a, runaway
And it's a sunny, sunny, sunny, sunny, sunny day
He had to go
He had to break away
His composition was so different
You never knew him or what he meant
He walked his own way
He never bent
He scared all people and those who were him near
And all the time he was projecting fear
He became a monster
A Dr. Frankenstein heir
I'm on my way to disaster
I'm on my way back home to you
I'm on my way to disaster
I'm on my way back home to you
I'm gonna make it through
And when you sleep tight late at night
I'm going away again
There's a darkness in my heart
I've got a monster inside of my head
It is chasing me daily
As it needs to be fed
I feel my brain will explode
Further down the road
There is no way out
For me
There's such a darkness around me
There's no shimmering light anywhere
The sun has stopped shining
It all seems so unfair
There's no love in the moon light
There's no sympathy for me in sight
The world is so evil
It's just a struggle and fight
Revenge is my mission
Hate is all I have in my life
This is my prison
You should have made me a wife
I feel my brain will explode
On this cobble stone road
There is no way out
For me
Gone is your family
Gone is the root of your cause
In solemn memory
No further flaws
I saw his brain exploded
As his hate was unloaded
And his soul went down
The drain
This is the end
This is the end of the story
There's no escape
There's no death of glory
Come hear his story why he couldn't stay
He had to leave home
He had to go away
He never fit into the world we know
He never understood how the flow
Of interaction
Among people should go
So he's a run-a, run-a, run-a, run-a, runaway
And it's a sunny, sunny, sunny, sunny, sunny day
He had to go
He had to break away
His composition was so different
You never knew him or what he meant
He walked his own way
He never bent
He scared all people and those who were him near
And all the time he was projecting fear
He became a monster
A Dr. Frankenstein heir
I'm on my way to disaster
I'm on my way back home to you
I'm on my way to disaster
I'm on my way back home to you
I'm gonna make it through
And when you sleep tight late at night
I'm going away again
There's a darkness in my heart
I've got a monster inside of my head
It is chasing me daily
As it needs to be fed
I feel my brain will explode
Further down the road
There is no way out
For me
There's such a darkness around me
There's no shimmering light anywhere
The sun has stopped shining
It all seems so unfair
There's no love in the moon light
There's no sympathy for me in sight
The world is so evil

Revenge is my mission
Hate is all I have in my life
This is my prison
You should have made me a wife
I feel my brain will explode
On this cobble stone road
There is no way out

Gone is your family
Gone is the root of your cause
In solemn memory
No further flaws
I saw his brain exploded
As his hate was unloaded
And his soul went down
The drain
This is the end
This is the end of the story
There's no escape
There's no death of glory
