Im afraid to sleep at night
I know my dreams are waiting for me
they wanna come out & play
please night I beg of you! dont come!
I want daylight to stay
this isnt a fun game
& once again my wishes are unfullfilled
as my eyelids slowly close
I dread whats coming for me
as my nightmare comes in for the kill
while they have their fun
haunting me with my childhood memories
theres nothing I can do
I wish I could wake-up
but this nightmare is far overdue
Im no longer a child you see
Im all grown-up now
still facing these so called "Night Terrors"
but I dont think you understand
just how much they consume of my being
& just before my life is taken away, I awake
because unfortunately I was only dreaming
