Nightmares sneaking in my bed

Living life over in my head

Causing all the fear to come back alive

Bringing back memories with such drive

In them, someone always after me

Why can't they let me go and let me be free

Afraid to go to sleep at night

They will start and cause such fright

The nightmares just won't go away

In my sleep they still betray

Feelings that are buried deep down

When I go to sleep they come around

My mind, my life I thought free of them

What I think's behind me, will always stem

So when I go to bed I pray

That I can sleep tonight, until the day
