Bio

Lyrics

SWEET DREAMS

Lying in your bed, insane visions in your head
Are you living, are you dead?
Coming to get you, get you.
Shadows on the wall, footsteps creak against the floor
What’s that hanging from the door?
Coming to get you, get you.

You’re trying to sleep but you feel like you’re dead
Your covered in blood, all sticky and red,
You cannot escape as your body has bled –
Sweet Dreams are filling your head,
You’re trying to live but that ain’t too smart
The ends in sight before you can start
Sweet Dreams will rip at your heart
Poison your mind and tear you apart

Am I really here or in your dreams,
Can you feel the blood dripping from the beams?
Coming to get you, get you.
In an empty place, feel my breath on your face
You’ll be gone without a trace
Coming to get you, get you.

You’re trying to sleep but you feel like you’re dead
Your covered in blood, all sticky and red,
You cannot escape as your body has bled
Sweet Dreams are filling your head
You’re trying to live, but that ain’t too smart
The ends in sight before you can start
Sweet Dreams will rip at your heart
Poison your mind and tear you apart
