Nightmare

Тревожный альтернативный рок с нео-фолковыми и этническими оттенками: мужской вокал в среднем темпе, от сухого шёпота к хриплому многослойному унисону. Дроун-виолончель, рамочный барабан, томы, тремоло-электрогитара, акустическая гитара с открытым строем; ленты эха и зернистая реверберация связывают звуки.

Verse 1] Eyes wide open The room feels tight Shadows are standing Against the wall I cannot scream My throat is knotted Like a heavy palm Pressed on my chest A whisper in the corner Circling round Softly scratching The glass from outside I recognize This cold, cold dream I’ve been here before Lost in my mind [Pre-Chorus] Can’t move a muscle Can’t turn away Body like stone Heart like a hammer I hear the night Crawling through the house And something sits down Right at my feet [Chorus] Nightmare awake Nightmare in sleep Don’t let go Don’t let go of my hand Sleep paralysis Sleep paralysis I’m on the edge I’m on the edge Nightmare awake Nightmare in sleep Don’t let go Please, don’t let me go [Verse 2] Knock on the wall Three short times I would run away But there is no way out Sticky fog Seals my lips Someone is softly Calling my name Eyelid is twitching The light won’t turn on There’s no day left Not a trace in the room And on the floor Someone’s shadow Is breathing for me Instead of myself [Pre-Chorus] Can’t move a muscle Can’t turn away Body like stone Heart like a hammer I hear the night Crawling through the house And something sits down Right at my feet [Chorus] Nightmare awake Nightmare in sleep Don’t let go Don’t let go of my hand Sleep paralysis Sleep paralysis I’m on the edge I’m on the edge Nightmare awake Nightmare in sleep Don’t let go Please, don’t let me go [Bridge] If this is a dream Let it shatter If this is fear Let it surrender I’ll hold on till dawn With every breath I’m not your prisoner I won’t let myself fall [Final Chorus] Nightmare awake Nightmare in sleep Don’t let go Don’t let go of my hand Sleep paralysis Sleep paralysis I’m on the edge I’m on the edge Nightmare awake Nightmare in sleep Don’t let go Please, don’t let me go
