Nightmares Lyrics

There's a little house on a perfect little hill
Just short of a fairytale
There's a little child with a million ways to feel
Caught up in a hurricane

Paper-thin walls
Angry words from down the hall
Something changed then
I think about him every now and again

Now there's a ghost in the back of this room
And I don't like it
I fall asleep with my covers pulled up
And try to fight it
I gotta say it's hard to be brave
When you're alone in the dark
I told myself that I wouldn't be scared
But I'm still having nightmares
I'm still having nightmares (but I'm still having nightmares)

Never did I think I'd be coming back around
Digging up old memories
Always used to be the one to let it go
Kept my fears in a suitcase

I locked them all away
In a place I wouldn't find
They still haunt me
I think about it every now and again

Now there's a ghost in the back of this room
And I don't like it
I fall asleep with my covers pulled up
And try to fight it
I gotta say it's hard to be brave
When you're alone in the dark
I told myself that I wouldn't be scared
But I'm still having nightmares
I'm still having nightmares (but I'm still having nightmares)

Now there's a ghost in the back of this room
And I don't like it
I fall asleep with my covers pulled up
And try to fight it

Now there's a ghost in the back of this room
And I don't like it
I fall asleep with my covers pulled up
And try to fight it
I gotta say it's hard to be brave
When you're alone in the dark
I told myself that I wouldn't be scared
But I'm still having nightmares
I'm still having nightmares (but I'm still having nightmares)

I gotta say it's hard to be brave
When you're alone in the dark
I told myself that I wouldn't be scared
But I'm still having nightmares

What is the Meaning of Nightmares?

Dealing with inner demons and past fears isn't always as straightforward as locking them away. "Nightmares" by All Time Low delves into the struggle of confronting these fears that resurface, particularly when we're alone and vulnerable. The imagery of a ghost in the room symbolizes unresolved issues haunting the narrator, making it challenging to find peace even in sleep. Despite attempts to be brave, the darkness amplifies their anxiety, highlighting a universal battle with our darker thoughts that can feel both isolating and relentless. It's a poignant reminder that bravery isn’t about never being scared; it’s about facing what terrifies us head-on 🌑.
