Nightmare - Set It Off

They’re coming, creeping from the corner

And all I know is that I don’t feel safe

I feel the tapping on my shoulder

I turn around in an alarming state

But am I losing my mind?

I really think so

Not a creature in sight

But, what you don’t know

Is that my breathing gets faster and so does my heartbeat

I wish this was over, I wish that this was a dream but

I created a monster, a hell within my head

With nowhere to go, I’m out on my own

Oh, I’m so scared

I created a monster, a beast inside my brain

With nowhere to go, I’m out on my own

My mind impaired

Awake me from my nightmare

Wait, something doesn’t feel right (feel right)

No, something seems wrong (wrong)

And I’ve been feeling this way (oh that’s too bad)

For far too long

As my vision gets blurred, my skin’s getting colder

Appearing young, while I’m growing older

I collapse to the floor and scream:

«Can anybody save me from myself?»

I created a monster, a hell within my head

With nowhere to go, I’m out on my own

Oh, I’m so scared

I created a monster, a beast inside my brain

With nowhere to go, I’m out on my own

My mind impaired

Awake me from my nightmare

Walking to the ledge, I find myself looking down

Frozen still with fear, now I’m plunging to the ground

If only I knew how to fly

Then I could convince myself this isn’t my time to die

Instead I’m rocketing faster and faster

I dive-bomb to the floor

And when my body crashes to the pavement

I’m right back where I was before

I created a monster, a hell within my head

With nowhere to go, I’m out on my own

Oh, I’m so scared

I created a monster, a hell within my head

With nowhere to go, I’m out on my own

Oh, I’m so scared, no, whoa

I created a monster, a beast inside my brain

With nowhere to go, I’m out on my own

My mind impaired

Awake me from my nightmare (I'm so scared)

Awake me from my nightmare (I'm so scared)

Awake me from my nightmare (I'm so scared)

Awake me from my nightmare (I'm so scared)

Awake me from my nightmare
