NIGHTMARE
V-1
Let there be light,
Make the darkness bright.
So, that I can again see,
You aren't the man for me.
At first you was a living dream,
Always treating me like a queen.
Then there came the change,
And nightmare became your name.
Chorus
Dream to nightmare,
How did I get here?
Why didn't I know closed was my eyes,
So, I couldn't see and know your lies.
V-2
Yes, I couldn't understand,
How could life be grand?
And then before I could tell,
Here I am living in this hell.
Feeling, fearing, not knowing,
What each minute would be showing?
Chorus
Dream to nightmare,
How did I get here?
Why didn't I know closed was my eyes,
So, I couldn't see and know your lies.
Bridge
Now, I find myself,
With out any help?
V-3
This I know I did,
As, truth from my heart I hid,
But, how much longer must I wait,
Before getting out is to, late?
Chorus
Dream to nightmare,
How did I get here?
Why didn't I know closed was my eyes,
So, I couldn't see and know your lies.
Why didn't I know closed was my eyes,
So, I couldn't see and know your lies.
Let there be light,
Make the darkness bright.
So, that I can again see,
You aren't the man for me.
At first you was a living dream,
Always treating me like a queen.
Then there came the change,
And nightmare became your name.
Chorus
Dream to nightmare,
How did I get here?
Why didn't I know closed was my eyes,
So, I couldn't see and know your lies.

And then before I could tell,

How did I get here?
Why didn't I know closed was my eyes,
So, I couldn't see and know your lies.

Why didn't I know closed was my eyes,
So, I couldn't see and know your lies.
Why didn't I know closed was my eyes,
So, I couldn't see and know your lies.
