[Intro – low, whispered]
Close the blinds…
Darkness hums like a broken machine,
I’m locked in the wires of my twisted dreams.
[Verse 1]
The ceiling drips shadows that crawl down my chest,
Whispers like razors won’t let me rest.
My veins turn to serpents, they coil and they bite,
Dragging my soul through the teeth of the night.
I scream, but the silence eats every word,
My prayers collapse — they’ll never be heard.
The clock melts sideways, the hands can’t spin,
This nightmare doesn’t end… it just begins.
[Hook – screamed / heavy]
Twisted dreams, I choke on the dark,
Sleep is a coffin that buries my heart.
Nightmare eyes staring straight through the seams,
I’ll never wake up — I’m trapped in the dream.
[Verse 2]
My skin peels away, but I’m still inside,
Bones like cages I can’t untie.
The mirror is laughing with a mouth like mine,
It swallows my face and erases the line.
A child in the corner sings out of tune,
Her voice is the echo of a hung red moon.
I reach for the light, but it burns like disease,
Hope is a phantom that drops to its knees.
[Hook – screamed harder]
Twisted dreams, I choke on the dark,
Sleep is a coffin that buries my heart.
Nightmare eyes staring straight through the seams,
I’ll never wake up — I’m trapped in the dream.
[Bridge – whispered to roar]
Every door I open leads to the grave,
Every path I take — another chain, another cage.
The night digs claws in the back of my skull,
I’m drowning in horror, my lungs stay full.
[Outro – distorted, fading whispers]
Rocking in silence, bleeding at the seams,
Buried alive in my twisted dreams.
The nightmare smiles, it knows I won’t wake…
Sleep is forever — and forever will take.
