The blood-red moon is shining
And outside in the still
Creatures of the night arise
Get ready for the kill
The voices in the darkness
Sirens in the air
Crying and now so can hear
The screams of your despair
Living on a nightmare
Living on a nightmare
Your soul carried on
When we have gone
Living on a nightmare
(Nightmare, nightmare! Nightmare, nightmare!)
Gruesome steps behind you
Electrify the nerves
You’re paralyzed, the end is near
You’ll get what you deserve
Your home will be the graveyard
Your crypt my lifeless hand
The end in sight, for hell is near
You’ll see the very end
Nightmare, nightmare!
I saw you take your night and so
Nightmare
Before the dawn
Living on a nightmare
Living on a nightmare
Your soul carried on
When we have gone
Living on a nightmare
Living on a nightmare
Heavy metal nightmare
Your soul they will burn
When you return
Living on a nightmare
(Nightmare, nightmare!)
