[Intro]
Tick-tock, hear the wiring breathe
Neon flickers, staring back at me
Eyes in the dark, counting every move
Tell me now - who’s haunting who?
[Verse]
Six hours trapped in a coffin of light
Doors held shut by a prayer every night
Cameras lie, shadows crawl
Every rule here’s made to fall
Cold metal hums like it knows my name
Every step echoes guilt and shame
I swear I hear them laugh when I blink
Like they know exactly what I think
[Pre-Chorus]
Walls are closing, wires scream
This doesn’t feel like a dream
Every breath is borrowed time
Counting seconds till I’m mine.
[Chorus]
This is a nightmare I can’t escape
Wide awake, but I’m sealed in fate
I run, I hide, I still can’t leave
Trapped inside this broken dream
Hear them whisper, hear them breathe
Metal mouths with human teeth
I scream, but silence answers me
Yeah, this is my nightmare
[Verse 2]
We remember every scream you left behind
Every lie you tried to bury in time
You lock the doors, you shut us out
But we live where fear is loud
We were children, we were names
Now we’re shadows fed by pain
You can’t reset what you broke inside
This place never lets you die
[Pre-Chorus]
Clock is laughing, night stands still
Every choice bends to our will
You feel safe behind that screen
But we see everything
[Chorus]
This is a nightmare I can’t escape
Every step seals my fate
I fight, I fall, I still can’t wake
Caught inside this endless phase
Hear the footsteps, feel the heat
Static screaming underneath
No end, no light, no guarantee
Yeah, this is my nightmare
[Bridge]
You hear us crying through the walls
You feel it every time you stall
This building breathes what you deny
You can’t outrun what never died
(drums slam back in)
Say our names
Face the blame
Stay awake
Play the game
[Verse 3]
If morning comes, I won’t be clean
The stains stay sharp, they don’t fade green
I close my eyes, they pull me in
Another night
Another sin
[Drop/Final Chorus]
This is a nightmare I can’t escape
No reset, no clean slate
The walls remember every scream
This isn’t sleep — it’s everything
We were lost, we were afraid
Now we’re gears in your decay
Stay and watch the darkness breathe
Welcome to your nightmare
[Outro]
Tick-tock, the night’s not done
No one leaves when morning comes
Close your eyes — don’t try to fight
We’ll see you
Tomorrow night
