fingers of lightning
they bind black to the green
it’s so scaring while it’s so beautiful
like a nightmare dream

it’s moving so kindly
I’m watching it sway
to the waltz of the wicked
I am carried away

If this is a nightmare then I never wish to wake
leave the body leave the world so far away
this place it fills my soul with peace
I feel the warmth in me
so I never want to wake again, I wish to stay

it’s shaking and it’s turning
to the thunder sound
I hear it cheering, see it smiling
as it goes round

it’s moving so kindly
I’m watching it sway
to the dance of the scarecrow
I let myself slide away

If this is a nightmare then I never wish to wake
leave the body leave the world so far away
this place it fills my soul with peace
I feel the warmth in me
so I never want to wake again, I wish to stay

an orchestra of flash and blast
lightens up the stage
storm and rain fill up the cast
conductor must be rage
I never want to wake again
I’ll never be awake again
I never want to wake again
I wish to stay

I never want to wake again

If this is a nightmare then I never wish to wake
leave the body leave the world so far away
this place it fills my soul with peace
I feel the warmth in me
so I never want to wake again, I wish to stay
