Nightmare

Every time you twist the knife
I feel a little relief
I close my eyes and think of pain
It brings me closer to you

Life is just waiting for death
Give me reason to believe
When all I ever see
Are midnight memories
Someone open my eyes to the sun
Or to the darkness I’ll succumb

Life is just waiting for death
Give me reason to believe
When all I’ll ever be
Is someone’s memories
So won’t you open my eyes to the sun
Or let me feel the comfort of a gun

Cold sweat high
Leavin’ me when I need that rush
Waking nights, endless days
I don’t hope for love but I long for hate

I’m just waiting…

Wake up!
Tonight is oh so inviting
Wake up!
Tomorrow: my favorite sorrow
Wake up!
I’m sorry you said you’re sorry
Wake up!
Awaken the old, cold unshaken nightmare

Fine breeze, autumn leaves
This is how it starts
Plant trees, little seeds
Peace in our two hearts

Life is just waiting for death
And it always comes for me
With a turn and then a twist
Your apologetic eyes
I’m just waiting…
