Dreams - what's haunting me 
Fear - that's the key 
I'm deader than a dog 
With a rattlesnaking cough 
My head's between my legs 
I'm useless 'til I get my dreams 
"They're eating me!" 

I'm a living walking nightmare 
A testament to fear and they're reaching out for me 
There's something in my head 
I want to close my eyes, but they're always 
In there, messin' with my dreams 
"They're eating me!" 

I close my eyes with darkness all around 
The shapes move in and pin me to the ground 
I hear my screams and they're inside my head 
I think I'm suffering from the monster effect 

I'm asking for asylum 
Somewhere in bedlam town 
The sands of time have run out 
Bleeding madness all behind 
Please unlock this door 
And leave the craziness behind 
Say - goodnight - mind
