"Nightmare" lyrics
(originally by Venom)
By the shores of the aging sea
Fools scream out destiny
They speak of vengeance and your gods
Into the fire, out of the flame
The beast awakes, thousands are slain
The mystic reads forgotten tales
All hallows hail your falling waves
Nightmare, this is your prize eternal
Nightmare, make no disguise infernal
Nightmare, you'll realize you're lost in
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
Inside explodes, the butcher strikes
You'd love to die, your baby cries
Lead candles burn, just a decoy
The giant child, you're his new toy
In the eye of the lion's teeth
Your flesh becomes his meat
You lie devoured still full of life
Temples of ice, white desert breeze
The golden sun prepares to freeze
Dying of thirst, drowning in pain
You wake in sleep, it starts again
Nightmare, this is your prize eternal
Nightmare, make no disguise infernal
Nightmare, you'll realize you're lost in
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
Fools scream out destiny
They speak of vengeance and your gods
Into the fire, out of the flame
The beast awakes, thousands are slain
The mystic reads forgotten tales
All hallows hail your falling waves
Nightmare, this is your prize eternal
Nightmare, make no disguise infernal
Nightmare, you'll realize you're lost in
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
Inside explodes, the butcher strikes
You'd love to die, your baby cries
Lead candles burn, just a decoy
The giant child, you're his new toy
In the eye of the lion's teeth
Your flesh becomes his meat
You lie devoured still full of life
Temples of ice, white desert breeze
The golden sun prepares to freeze
Dying of thirst, drowning in pain
You wake in sleep, it starts again
Nightmare, this is your prize eternal
Nightmare, make no disguise infernal
Nightmare, you'll realize you're lost in
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
