AlbumNIGHTMARE



Nightmare

Nightmare!

(Now your nightmare comes to life)

Dragged ya down below, down to the devils show,

To be his guest forever (Peace of mind is less than never)!

Hate to twist your mind, but God ain't on your side,

An old acquaintance severed (burn the world your last endeavor)!

Flesh is burning, you can smell it in the air,

Cause men like you have such an easy soul to steal (steal)

So stand in line while they ink numbers in your head,

you're now a slave until the end of time here,Nothing stops the madness turning, haunting, yearning, pull the trigger!

You should have known the price of evil,

And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah

Oooooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare!

(While your nightmare comes to life)

Can't wake up in sweat, cause it ain't over yet,

still dancin' with your demons (Victim of your own creation)

Beyond the will to fight, where all that's wrong is right

Where hate don't need a reason (loathing self-assassination)

You've been lied to just to rape you of your site,

and now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel (feel)

So sedated as they medicate your brain

and while you slowly go insane the tell ya:

Given with the best intentions help you with your complications!


And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.

No one to call, everybody to fear,

Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah.

Oooooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare, ha-ha-ha-ha!

Fight (fight), not to fail (fail), not to fall (fall)

Or you'll end up like the others.

Die (die), die again (die), drenched in sin (sin)

With no respect for another.

Down (down), feel the fire (fire), feel the hate (hate)



Your pain is what we desire.

Lost (lost), hit the wall (wall), watch you crawl (crawl)

Such a replaceable liar.

And I know you hear their voices (calling from above),

And I know they may seem real (these signals of love),

But our life's made up from choices (some without appeal),

They took for granted your soul, and it's ours now to steal

(As your nightmare comes to life)!


And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.

No one to call, everybody to fear,

Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah

Oooooh, it's your fucking nightmare!



Welcome To The Family

Hey kids! (hey kids)

Do I have your attention?I know the way you've been living

Life's so reckless, tragedy endless

Welcome to the family

Hey!

There's something missing

Only time will alter your vision

Never in question, lethal injection


Not long ago you'd find the answers were so crystal clear

Within a day you found yourself living in constant fear

Can you look at yourself now?

Can you look at yourself?

You can't win this fight

And in a way it seems there's no one to call

When our thoughts are so numb and

Our feelings unsure

We all have emptiness inside,

We all have answers to find

But you can't win this fight!

Hey kids!

I have to question

What's with the violent aggression?

Details blurry, lost him too early


Hey!

Why won't you listen?

Can't help the people you're missing

It's been done, a casualty re-run


I try and help you with the things that can't be justified

I need to warn you that there is no way to rationalize

So have you figured it out now?

So have you figured it out?

You can't win this fight





Our feelings unsure



But you can't win this fight!

Gunning for you and all mankind,

I've lost my mind

Psychotic rabid dementia

I won't be fine

I see, you're a king who's been dethroned

Cast out, in a world you've never knownStand down, place your weapons by your side

It's our war, in the end we'll surely lose but that's alright!

So have you figured it out now?

So have you figured it out?



Our feelings unsure



But you can't win this fight

Deep inside,

where nothing's fine

I lost my mind

You're not invited,

so step aside

I've lost my,

Deep inside,

where nothing's fine

I lost my mind

You're not invited,

so step aside

I've lost my...



Danger Line

My sixteen, locked and loaded

All fear has been abortedYou say the words and my weapon is drawn

This one could be my last time

Some people call it war crime

I may be staring down a lethal sight

(To die)

Nothing shocks you like a bullet hole

Leaving my fear on the danger line

Suffering a man should never knowLeaving my faith on the danger line

I do this for my family

My daughter loves her daddy

Too many talk down on things they don't know

With colors never faded

Reckless and unabated

They may take me but never take us all

(I'll crawl)

Nothing shocks you like a bullet hole

Leaving my fear on the danger line

Suffering a man should never know

Leaving my faith on the danger line

I know what you're thinking

I've been there before

So think of the times, the time we spent laughing awaySo think of the times at home

(Life without a care)

Now I find myself in my own blood

(Never thought I'd lay in my own blood)

The damage done is far beyond repair

I never put my faith in up above

(Never had much faith in up above)

But now, I'm hoping someone's there

I never meant to leave this world alone



I never meant to hurt the ones who cared

And all this time I thought we'd just grow old

You know, no one said it's fair

Tell my baby girl that "It's alright"

I've sung my last song today

Remind the lord to leave his light on for me

I'm free



Buried Alive

Take the time just to listen

When the voices screaming are much too loudTake a look in the distance

Try and see it all

Chances are that ya might find

That we share a common discomfort now

I feel I'm walking a fine line

Tell me only if it's real

Still I'm on my way

On and on it goes

Vacant hope to take

Hey I can't live in here for another day

Darkness has kept the light concealed

Grim as ever

Hold on to faith as I dig another grave

Meanwhile the mice endure the wheel

Real as ever

And it seems I've been buried alive

I walked the fields through the fire

Taking steps until I found solid ground

Followed dreams reaching higher

Couldn't survive the fall

Much has changed since the last time

And I feel a little less certain now

You know I jumped at the first sign

Tell me only if it's real

Memories seem to fadeOn and on it goes

Wash my view away

Hey I can't live in here for another day

Darkness has kept the light concealed

Grim as ever

Hold on to faith as I dig another grave

Meanwhile the mice endure the wheel

Real as ever

And I'm chained like a slave

Trapped in the dark



Slammed all the locks

Death calls my name

And it seems I've been buried alive

Take you down now

Burn it all out

Throw you all around

Get your fuckin' hands off me

What's it feel like

Took the wrong route

Watch it fall apart

Now you're knockin' at the wrong gate

For you to pay the toll

A price for you alone

The only deal you'll findI'll gladly take you soul

While it seems sick sober up quick

Psycho lunatic crushing you with hands of fate

Shame to find out when it's too late

But you're all the same

Trapped inside inferno awaits

Evil thoughts can hide

I'll help release the mind

I'll peel away the skin

Release the dark within

This is now your life

Strike you from the light


Die buried alive


Strike you from the light


Die buried alive


Die buried alive



Natural Born Killer

One snap for the dying

One click to end the dayAnother story with a mangled scene

It couldn't happen any other way

You wanna talk about it?

I'm begging you to walk in my shoes anytime

Watch the clock 'til you unwind

You wanna cry about it,

It's making me consider that I lost my mind.

The way I see you must be blind

So this is the world you left behind

This is the guilt that consumes you

So die alone

This is the one thing that I won't do

So say your prayers

'Cause I ain't leaving here without you

Can't bribe me with money

Can't shower me with shame

Another killer from a broken home

Until you covered me with manic fame.

You wanna know about it,

But I'm a be fuckin' with you every time.

Story broke and you're behind

And when you ask about it,

You can rest assured I'll give you my best side

Seems we all have friends to find

So this is the hate I've been born to

Full are the tales of the untrue

So die alone


So say your prayers


And I'm waiting

Waiting for the days to slowly pass me by



(and all the promises I'll find)

No hesitating,

You pull the trigger and your story's left behind.

(I know you wanna see me fry)

Like my soul you won't survive.

So die alone


So say your prayers


To die unknown

Would crush the fish lens we all see through

To kill the glare

Expose the ugliness we hold true



So Far Away

Never feared for anything

Never shamed but never freeA light that healed a broken heart with all that it could

Lived a life so endlessly

Saw beyond what others see

I tried to heal your broken heart with all that I could

Will you stay?

Will you stay away forever?

How do I live without the ones I love?Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned

Place and time always on my mind

I have so much to say but you're so far away

Plans of what our futures hold

Foolish lies of growing old

It seems we're so invincible

The truth is so cold

A final song, a last request

A perfect chapter laid to rest

Now and then I try to find a place in my mind

Where you can stay

You can stay awake forever

How do I live without the ones I love?

Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned

Place and time always on my mindI have so much to say but you're so far away

Sleep tight, I'm not afraid

The ones that we love are here with me

Lay away a place for me

Cause as soon as I'm done I'll be on my way

To live eternally

How do I live without the ones I love?

Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned

Place and time always on my mind



And the light you left remains but it's so hard to stay

When I have so much to say and you're so far away

I love you, you were ready

The pain is strong and urges rise

But I'll see you when He lets me

Your pain is gone, your hands untied

So far away

And I need you to know

So far away

And I need you to, need you to know...





(LIAR, RAPE, KILL)

You better take it slow

Cause when you seek the one

(LOVE, HATE, FEAR)

There's nothing left to show.

TOTAL NIGHTMARE!

TOTAL NIGHTMARE!

TOTAL NIGHTMARE!

TOTAL NIGHTMARE!





When all is gone and can't be regained

We can't seem to shelter the pain inside

We've all been victims of a crime

Victims of a crime

Living with this crime

I'm missing you

I'm missing you

I'm missing you

I'm missing you...



Tonight The World Dies

Lost the meaning of our stay

Learn to live another dayDoubt the choices that we've made

I know that we can't hide our shame

It's only in disguise

Drowning in our own debris

Fool our thoughts as through we're free

Close our eyes so we can see

The depth of all we need to be

If only in my eyes

I don't mind- make the writing on the wall

Mother cries- tortured voices as we crawl

Find me on my better days

To lose it once again

In a way

So try and love me while you can

And take the time to understand

As long as I can touch your face

You know I'll never leave this place

If only in my mind


Mother cries- tortured voices as we call



But I seem to find no better ways

To consciously pretend

Silence all I want to say

With tendencies to run away

I'll run away with you tonight

Launder all my sins away

And just like that mistakes are made, you know

Tonight the world dies


Mother cries- tortured voices as we crawl





But I seem to find no better ways

To consciously pretend



Fiction

Now I think I understand,

How this world can overcome a man.Like a friend we saw it through,

In the end I gave my life for you.

Gave you all I had to give,

Found a place for me to rest my head.

While I may be hard to find,

Heard there's peace just on the other side.

Not that I could,

Or that I would,Let it burn,

Under my skin.

Let it burn!

Left this life to set me free,

Took a piece of you inside of me.

All this hurt can finally fade,

Promise me you'll never feel afraid.

Not that I could,

Or that I would,

Let it burn,

Under my skin.

Let it burn!

I hope it's worth it,

Here on the highway, yeah.

I know you'll find your own way when I'm not with you.

So tell everybody

The ones who walk beside me, yeah.

I hope you'll find your own way when I'm not with you tonight.

I hope it's worth it,

What's left behind me, yeah.

I know you'll find your own way when I'm not with you.

So tell everybody,

The ones who walk beside me, yeah.

I know you'll find your own way when I'm not with you tonight.



Save Me

Skull!

(They all know. They all know.)

Sorry, did I wake your dream?

Some questions run to deep

We only, only wake up when we sleep

Led by the lunar light, trouble's all we'd find

Lost our way tonight

Is it something we said?

Is it something we said to them?Is it something we said?!

(Save me)

I'm trapped in a vile world

(Save me)

Where the end game's all the same as every other

We're only here to die

(Save me)

I'm losing my only dream

(Save me)

I can use some guiding light, some place to go

If you hear me, let me know

(They all know. They all know.)

Ever since the day you left my fate's been set unknown

How many years to walk this path alone?

So much to see tonight, so why'd you close your eyes?

Why can't I shut mine?

Is it something we did?

Is it something we did to them?

Is it something we did?!

(Save me)


(Save me)



(Save me)




(Save me)


If you hear me, let me know,


Help me find my way

I said help me find my way

No pulse inside of me

Stone cold lips and heresy

All lies and to a degree

Losing who I want to be

You'll find out right now

He may be out of his mind,But some day you will find

That sanity's left us all blind

and dragged us all behind

A moment seen through those eyes,

Crystal blue disguise

They say that all beauty must die,

I say it just moves on

If you'd only open your mind

Then some day you will find

Insanity left us behind

and walked right through the door

I can see the pictures clear as yesterday

Pictures all my own

I can hear the voices begging you to stay

But know you're not alone

(Save me)


(Save me)



(Save me)


(Save me)


If you hear me, let me know,




Tonight we all die young






Tonight we all die

Tonight we all die young!



Lost it All

Run away

I'm living with a hole insideA piece of me that I have yet to find

The edge of reason lies uneven

Turn me off, feel the blood so cold

Like a product that was bought in salt

Asking me for the impossible

I ain't waiting for a miracle

I ain't waiting for the world to change

Under my skin lives the reasonUnder my armor I lost it all

No more pain

No savior made of our design

Fool me before I tell ya not this time

Rape my body, lost my vision, lost my mind

I had to let it go

Another day living irrational

Another day inside this dying soul



Under my skin lives the reason

Under my armor I lost it all

There's something in your eyes

A part of me that I recognize

I want to let you knowWe'd be there if we could and it's alright

You taught me how to feel

It's no wonder I'd do anything

Tell me why'd you have to go?

With the ones that come lost are the best I know

At times, it seems that we've lost it all

Burn it all

Burn it to the fucking ground

Believe the words that I don't want me around

Life with vision, indecision



World collision and heads will roll

With nothing left except the pain to show

Mental imagery on the floor



Under my skin lives the reason

Under my armor I lost it all
