Living on a Nightmare Lyrics

Blood red moon is shining
And outside in the still
Creatures of the night arise
Get ready for the kill

The voices in the darkness, sirens in the air
A crying that no soul can hear
The screams of your despair

Living on a nightmare, living on a nightmare
It's all carried on when we have gone
Whoa, oh-oh, living on a
Nightmare (nightmare, nightmare)
(Nightmare, nightmare)

Gruesome steps behind you
Electrify the nerves
You're paralyzed, the end is near
You get what you deserve

Your home will be the graveyard
You grip my lifeless hand
The end in sight, for hell is here
Won't see the merry end

Nightmare, nightmare
I saw you take another soul
Nightmare before the dawn

Living on a nightmare, living on a nightmare
It's all carried on when we have gone
Whoa, oh-oh, living on a nightmare

Living on a nightmare, heavy metal nightmare
The soul mate will burn when you return
Whoa, oh-oh, living on a
Nightmare (nightmare, nightmare)
