Graceman - Nightmare lyrics

I hear 'em creepin', hear 'em sneakin'
They're tryna be quiet
Said my goodbyes, I close my eyes
Sweet dreams, goodnight
Slowly driftin' to a far off place
Where I'll stare my demons
Straight in the face

When the sun goes away
(when the sun goes away)
The monsters come out to play
But, I don't like these kinds of games
No, I don't like these kinds of games

This dream is a nightmare
This dream is a nightmare and I'm scared
This dream is a nightmare
This dream is a nightmare, a nightmare

Story tellin', so compellin'
Is the light of the moon
Night has fallen, dark is callin'
Soon I'll be consumed
Slowly driftin' to a far off place
Where I'll stare my demons
Straight in the face

When the sun goes away
(when the sun goes away)
The monsters come out to play
But, I don't like these kinds of games
No, I don't like these kinds of games
Shadows dance on the wall
(shadows dance on the wall)
Footsteps echo in the hall
Don't you know I'm afraid
Hey, don't you know I'm afraid

This dream is a nightmare
This dream is a nightmare and I'm scared
This dream is a nightmare
This dream is a nightmare, a nightmare

No matter how hard I try (hard I try)
I can't seem to wake up
And I am turning into what I fear most (most)
Who I once was, will only be a ghost

Ay yeah, oh this dream is a nightmare
This dream is a nightmare and I'm scared
This dream is a nightmare
This dream is a nightmare, a nightmare
Ay yeah, oh
