Nightmare

Catch that feeling?
Just a tightening of the gut
Something's out there
It's no use to pretend it's not
Drawing closer
On its hands and on its knees
Wish it wasn't?
But it shall do just as it's pleased

It can see you
Through the doors and through the walls
It can smell you
And now by God, It's on its way
It can hear you
No matter how quiet and still you keep
Soon will touch you
You'll soon find out no refuge lies in sleep

Nightmare
It's coming to get you
Nightmare
Soon be all around you
Nightmare
Maybe going to eat you?
Nightmare

Creeping slowly
Across the floor and up the walls
Soon surrounded
There's no escape, there's no way out
Now it'll get you
A huddled wraith pinned to the boards
Dreams are over
For now it's time for the nightmare to begin

Nightmare
It's coming to get you
Nightmare
Soon be all around you
Nightmare
Maybe going to eat you?
Nightmare
Drag you screaming from your bed
Pleas for mercy turn no head
