The demons in the dark, take my spirit every night.
I'm dragged from my dreams, to the nightmares I fight.
They remind me of my past, and my pain over the years.
I wake up hot and sweaty, my eyes are filled with tears.

Every night is the same, it will never go away.
I dread going to bed, only to awake the next day.
My memories are very terrible, my nightmares are much worse.
I wasn't born like this, so it must be some kind of curse.

I toss and turn all night long, hoping for a dream.
But nightmares haunt me while I sleep, they make me want to scream.
Peace is all I really want, a dream is all I seek.
Nightmares fill my head so strong, my mind is getting weak.
