.nightmare

[Verse 1]
"Ding dong!" Got me falling down
Feathers turn to ashes, ashes turn to dust
And I'm windblown to the land of doubt
Could I be the devil? Got no one to trust
One mind to create it all
Make yourself at home, darling
Would you be my guest?
'Cause in no time I begin to fall and light is laid to rest (Rest)
(Yuh) And as I take the form of despair
I dream of vultures flapping wings
Told you revenge is not fair but you couldn't see the in-betweens
(Yuh) Look at this beautiful satellite
Just made sense to push you down
In the dark ocean of my mind may you drown

[Pre-Chorus]
In the color of your eyes I watch the rain in paradise
But you kill me, kill me, step on my feet
So dance with me, dance with me, follow my lead
And now that you are mine (Now that you are mine)
I painted worlds of black and white
And now there's a stain, a rose in the sea
And a washed out face is staring at me

[Chorus]
Nowhere to run, my dear
Nowhere to hide here
No one can save you from the rippling tide
Better behave, my dear
This is my nightmare (This is my nightmare)
And I can make the waters red whenever I please

[Verse 2]
"Ding dong!" Do I hear you cry?
Such a lovely evening... Would you dare to ruin the night?
(Better Watch)
Better watch out, there's something wrong with your disguise
(Darling, I)
Darling, I see through all the lies
(Scarecrow)
Scarecrow laughs at you
Singing "the bitch is back and her heart is blue"
Rolls of thunder talk and unvoice any fool

[Pre-Chorus]
In the color of your eyes (Color of your eyes)
I watch the rain in paradise (Paradise)
But you kill me, kill me, step on my feet
So dance with me, dance with me, follow my lead
And now that you are mine (Now that you are mine)
I painted worlds of black and white (Painted worlds of black)
And now there's a stain, a rose in the sea
And a washed out face is staring at me

(Nowhere to run, my dear)

[Outro]
Nowhere to run, my dear
Nowhere to hide here
No one can save you from the rippling tide
Better behave, my dear
This is my nightmare
And I can make the waters red whenever I please
