"Worst Nightmare" lyrics

Your worst nightmare could be anything
It doesn't gotta be
Stereotypical mystical bullshit
That doesn't exist
It's a trick of the industries
Feeding on innocence
Cinemas sellin' us venomous images

Killin' civilians
Feeding us villains with little personas
To take with us home but see
What they don't know is
We've already seen the worst side of the world
Ain't a surprise people die in the world
Lie in the world

Walk around lost and wondering why
Why do I try?
Why do I hide?
Why do I live in disguise?
Why do I chase the next high?
Why do I have to take sides?
Why do I even ask why
When I know that they'll just feed me lie after lie

Your worst nightmare could be anything
It could be somebody preaching Leviticus
Throwing brimstones, spreading his wickedness
Making us feel all alone, insignificant
How could you be so ridiculous?
Meticulous
Oh, so insidious
If you think you're right all the time
Then odds are, you're an idiot!

I've dealt with worse than you
I've felt what it's like to lose
I'm not scared of what's out there
I've seen the worst in my nightmares
I've dealt with worse than you
I've felt what is like to lose
I'm not scared of what's out there
I've seen the worst in my nightmares

Your worst nightmare could be anything
It could be going to bed with the enemy
Where they wind up only fuckin' you mentally
Beatin' you up seems to be their new specialty
'Specially in front of his buddies
Yet, his buddies don't even see ugly
Isn't that lovely?
This is the world that we live in
Where everyone sexualize women
And everyone's here to give in

I'm done with playing these games with you
I'm sick and tired, I always lose
I think I'll try and play another day
If that's okay

I can't keep up if you're just gonna leave me
Why would I speak if you wouldn't believe me?
I can't deal with all these people
Deceivin' and givin' me reasons to not say my piece
I don't think they're ready to hear my release
Unleash all my creatures that lurk in the deep
They just don't accept and acceptance is key
When you're dealing with all your worst nightmares like me

I'm done with playin' these games with you
I'm sick and tired, I always lose
I think I'll try and play another day
If that's okay

I've dealt with worse than you
I've felt what it's like to lose
I'm not scared of what's out there
I've seen the worst in my nightmares

I'm done with playin' these games with you
I'm sick and tired, I always lose
I think I'll try and play another day
If that's okay
