The Nightmare

Verse 1

In the silence of the night, shadows start to creep

Whispers in the dark, haunting every sleep

Moonlight casts a glow, but it’s not enough to see

The terrors lurking close, won’t let me be

Chorus

Oh, the nightmare’s drawing near

Filling me with fear

Can’t escape the fright

In the dead of night

Verse 2

Footsteps echo loud, in the empty hall

Every corner hides, secrets that appall

Heartbeat racing fast, as the walls close in

Trapped within this maze, where do I begin?

Chorus

Oh, the nightmare’s drawing near

Filling me with fear

Can’t escape the fright

In the dead of night

Bridge

I see faces in the dark, eyes that never blink

Try to scream, but no one hears, on the edge I sink

Monsters from my mind, come alive in dreams

There’s no waking up, from these endless screams

Verse 3

Light is but a hope, fading far away

Praying for the dawn, to end this night’s dismay

Clutching to my soul, fighting to break free

But the nightmare holds, it won’t let me be

Chorus

Oh, the nightmare’s drawing near

Filling me with fear

Can’t escape the fright

In the dead of night

Outro

Till the morning light

I will face the fight

In this endless plight

Survive the nightmare’s bite
