Nightmares


Screaming as I'm tryin' to sleep
Sweat pouring profusley
Shakin', shakin', toss and turn
Sanity, I am losing.

Crying as I'm trying to calm
Calm my roaming thoughts.
Horrored visions fill my mind
A NIGHTMARE has been caught.

Bad dreams make for suffering
Terror in the night.
One is caught so simply,
Just turn on the light.

Flip, flip, flip the switch;
Demons be gone.
Come back another night
Sings your devilish song.

Leave me now, for nighttime peace,
Painless evening slumber.
So I may awaken in the morn
Without a SCREAMING hunger.
