Lyrics
Nightmare
Do you still know where you are going to my friend?
Have you forgotten all that you?ve seen and heard?
There is just one thing that I?m not sure of.
And that is why you have returned.
There must be some kind of reason.
That it always ends this way.
Though we land upright as you?re tossed from side.
You?re not thankful for the day.
People passing, their lights shine yet they go unrecognized.
Who are these souls lurking beneath the flesh?
You say you?re not sure, but your actions give your intent away.
So I think that you know.
There must be some kind of reason.
That it always ends this way.
Though you land upright as you?re tossed from side.
You?re not thankful for the day.
That?s right, you?re not thankful.
Reality burst the bubble, surrounding my happy life.
Ripping out the walls that shield the truth.
As one defense fails another takes the sense away.
From what was revealed.
There must be some kind of reason.
That it always ends this way.
Though we land upright as we?re tossed from side to side.
We?re not thankful for the day.
That?s right, you?re not thankful.
