“Nightmare” personifies The Monster — the inner voice inside everyone that creates fear and doubt about whether their dreams can actually become reality. Every person hears this voice and feels its overwhelming power. Some succumb to it, never daring to reach for their deepest aspirations. Instead, they become a slave to The Monster, feeding its wrath and terror with their own insecurities. This haunting track explores the darkness that keeps people from pursuing their dreams.
A haunting depiction of man’s greatest enemy — himself — “Nightmare” provokes its listeners to realize their own beasts of fear and doubt, living inside themselves, waiting to destroy their dreams.
Lyrics
Nightmare

I’m a monster, I’m a beast
I’m what comes out when you go to sleep
I will terrorize your dreams
I feed off all your fears and all your screams
