Nightmare Lyrics

[Intro]
Nightmare!
(Now your nightmare comes to life)
[Verse 1]
Dragged ya down below
Down to the devil's 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!)
[Pre-Chorus]
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!
[Chorus]
You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
(While your nightmare comes to life)
[Verse 2]
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!)
[Pre-Chorus]
You've been lied to just to rape you of your sight
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, they tell ya
"Given with the best intentions
Help you with your complications!"
[Chorus]
You should have known
The price of evil
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
Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare, ha-ha-ha-ha
[Guitar Solo]
[Breakdown]
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
Unh!
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
[Bridge]
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 of choices
(Some without appeal)
They took for granted your soul
And it's ours now to steal
(As your nightmare comes to life)
[Chorus]
You should have known
The price of evil
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
Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare

Natural Born Killer Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One snap for the dying
One click to end the day
Another 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 any time
Watch the clock 'til you unwind
You wanna cry about it
It's making me consider that I've 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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Can't bribe me with money
Can't shower me with shame
Another killer from a broken home
Until you cover me with manic fame
You wanna know about it?
But I'ma be fucking with you every time
Story broken, 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
[Chorus]
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
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
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, now your story's left behind
I know you wanna see me fry!
Like my soul, you won't survive
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
To die unknown
Would crush the fish-lens we all see through
To kill the glare
Expose the ugliness we hold true

Tonight the World Dies Lyrics

[Refrain]
Ooh, ooh ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh ooh-ooh
[Verse 1]
Lost the meaning of our stay
Learn to live another day
Doubt the choices that we've made
I know that we can't hide our shame
It's only in disguise
[Refrain]
Ooh, ooh ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Drownin' in our own debris
Fool our thoughts as though we're free
Close our eyes so we can see
The depth of all we mean to be
If only in my eyes
[Chorus]
I don't mind (Read 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
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
I don't mind (Read the writing on the wall)
Mother cries (Tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days to lose it once again
But I seem to find no better ways to consciously pretend
[Bridge]
Silence, all I wanna say
With tendencies to run away
I run away with you tonight
Launder all my sins away
And just like that, mistakes are made
You know tonight the world dies
[Chorus]
I don't mind (Read the writing on the wall)
Mother cries (Tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days to lose it once again
But I seem to find no better ways to consciously pretend
[Refrain]
Ooh, ooh ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh ooh-ooh

Save Me Lyrics

[Intro]
Skull!
[Interlude]
[Refrain]
(They all know)
(They all know)
[Verse 1]
Sorry, did I wake your dream? Some questions run too deep
We only, only wake up when we sleep
Led by the lunar light, trouble's all we find
Lost our way tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it somethin' we said?
Is it somethin' we said to them?
Is it somethin' we said?
[Chorus]
(Save me)
I'm trapped in a vile world
(Save me)
Where the endgame's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
(Save me)
I'm losin' my only dream
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go
If ya hear me, let me know
[Refrain]
(They all know)
(They all know)
[Verse 2]
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?
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it somethin' we did?
Is it somethin' we did to them?
Is it somethin' we did?
[Chorus]
(Save me)
I'm trapped in a vile world
(Save me)
Where the endgame's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
(Save me)
I'm losin' my only dream
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go
If ya hear me, let me know
If ya hear me, let me know
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Help me find my way
Said help me find my way
[Breakdown]
No pulse inside of me
Stone cold lips and heresy
All lies, and to a degree
Losing who I wanna be
You'll find out right now
He may be out of his mind
But someday, 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 someday, 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
[Chorus]
(Save me)
I'm trapped in a vile world
(Save me)
Where the endgame's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
(Save me)
I'm losin' my only dream
(Save me)
I can use some guiding light, some place to go
If ya hear me, let me know
If ya hear me, let me know
[Interlude]
[Outro]
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die
Tonight we all die young
