2. Night Terror (9:55)
Spiders seeking shelter
Fading with the dawn
Vanishing at sunrise
As morning light shines on
Sacrificial martyr
Victim dressed in white
Headed for the slaughter
Angels cry for her tonight
To the cross
At the stake
To the lions
On the rack I break
I break
Night terror
Hysteria
Nocturnal trial by fire
Eyes open wide but I can't see
Mind awake
Body at rest
Drifting through sleep transitions
Borderland state
Swimming through waves
Sensory dream condition
Without warning
I fall down the bottomless well
Flesh is crawling
Need to claw my way out of this hell
By the sword
On the wheel
Twisting in the wind
Pierce the silence
With a scream
Why can't I remember anything?
Anything?
Night terror
Hysteria
Nocturnal trial by fire
Eyes open wide but I can't see
Night terror
Hysteria
Nocturnal trial by fire
Eyes open wide but I can't see
Night terror
Hysteria
Nocturnal trial by fire
Eyes open wide but I can't see
I can't see
Fading with the dawn
Vanishing at sunrise
As morning light shines on
Sacrificial martyr
Victim dressed in white
Headed for the slaughter
Angels cry for her tonight
To the cross
At the stake
To the lions
On the rack I break
I break
Night terror
Hysteria
Nocturnal trial by fire
Eyes open wide but I can't see
Mind awake
Body at rest
Drifting through sleep transitions
Borderland state
Swimming through waves
Sensory dream condition
Without warning
I fall down the bottomless well
Flesh is crawling
Need to claw my way out of this hell
By the sword
On the wheel
Twisting in the wind
Pierce the silence
With a scream
Why can't I remember anything?
Anything?
Night terror
Hysteria
Nocturnal trial by fire
Eyes open wide but I can't see
Night terror
Hysteria
Nocturnal trial by fire
Eyes open wide but I can't see
Night terror
Hysteria
Nocturnal trial by fire
Eyes open wide but I can't see
I can't see
