Nightmare Within

Shadows creeping, my mind's decaying

Lost in the darkness, I keep fading

Once I was bright, a flame within

Now I'm wrapped in fog, sealed in sin

The mirror's looking back with cold disdain

Who am I now, lost in this pain?

Can't find the light, it's drowned in despair

This nightmare's real, it's eating me bare

Hating what I've become, trapped in the night

Choking on fears, losing the fight

The darkness has won, I can't escape

Drowning in shadows, sealed my fate

Echoes of laughter, now distant screams

Haunted by the ghosts of my broken dreams

The nightmare's my home, no way out

Silent screams drown my doubt

Craving the dawn, but darkness clings tight

A prisoner to this never-ending night

Hating what I've become, trapped in the night

Choking on fears, losing the fight

The darkness has won, I can't escape

Drowning in shadows, sealed my fate

Is there salvation, a way to break free?

Or am I destined for eternity?

Breaking down the walls that surround my mind

Seeking the hope I can't find

The nightmare's my shadow, forever in pain

Hating myself for this dark refrain

Lost in the night, I fade away

Hating what I’ve become, day after day
