Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] Bells at midnight Cold and hollow One by one They count my fear [Verse 1] Wake in the dark Nailed to the pillow Shadows crawl Across the wall Every heartbeat Hammering faster Like someone Calling from the hall Whispers circling Close behind me Breath like winter On my neck Reach for the light But it turns crimson Every step A broken check [Chorus] Living nightmare I can’t wake up Teeth of terror Round my throat Every scream I swallow Feeds the ghost inside Living nightmare Dragging me below I feel the daylight Letting go [Verse 2] Pictures twist Their faces cracking Eyes ignite With hidden flame Hands push through My bedroom ceiling Every voice Knows my name Clocks run backward Time unspooling Floor dissolves Beneath my feet Fall through memories I buried Hear the past Begin to speak [Chorus] Living nightmare I can’t wake up Teeth of terror Round my throat Every scream I swallow Feeds the ghost inside Living nightmare Dragging me below I feel the daylight Letting go [Bridge] Creeping choir In my chest (oh) Every note A dying breath If I face the darkest shape Do I break Or do I wake? [Chorus] Living nightmare I won’t give up Rip these phantoms From my bones Every word I shout Becomes a battle cry Living nightmare Hear me overthrow I ride the rising Of my soul
