Nightmare Weaver

Where do we go when we sleep?
Blind across eternity
The heroes and villains, the light and the darkness
We all have to drift into dream
Desperate to feel in control
Perfection and order in our souls
But consciousness drifts when our eyelids do shift
What chaos we buried unfolds

Nightmare weaver, twist my dreams
And show me all my fears
Nightmare weaver, whisper words
That only I can hear
Who else have you twisted in darkness?
What perfection and order you break?
Muse or teacher, mind deceiver
Nightmare weaver, won't you let me wake?

The siren is singing so sweet
In my mind's eye I see
It's pulling me under, if not for this slumber
The mast of my mind tying me
But what of an evil unbound?
of the sane, can't tie down
What dreams do the darkest and dangerous have?
What dreams could bury their crown?

Nightmare weaver, twist my dreams
And show me all my fears
Nightmare weaver, whisper words
That only I can hear
Who else have you twisted in darkness?
What perfection and order you break?
Muse or teacher, mind deceiver
Nightmare weaver, won't you let me wake?
