Nightmare
Impellitteri Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Welcome to my nightmare people
Fear all, all the madness that you see
Welcome to nay nightmare people
Save me, from my own reality
In my head the games begin, round and round they spin again
Thoughts deranged come back again, once insane it never ends

It's eternal agony in this nightmare, it's my nightmare

You, you never want to be, you never want to see
You never want to crawl inside of me
You never want to know, you never want to go
You never want to find insanity
You never want to do, you haven't got a clue
You never want to meet that side of me

All alone to see, my own absurdity
Don't you know it never ends
Please comfort me, until the world can see
Please, please, end this nightmare, it's a nightmare

Round and round I go, will I ever know?
When will it end!

You, you never want to be, you never want to see
You never want to crawl inside of me
You never want to know, you never want to go
You never want to find insanity
You never want to do, you haven't got a clue
You never want to meet that side of me

All alone to see, my own absurdity
Don't you know it never ends
Please comfort me, until the world can see
Please, please, end this nightmare, it's a nightmare





In this nightmare, it's a nightmare

Overall Meaning

The song "Nightmare" by Impellitteri describes the lead singer's struggle with his own mind and the madness he feels trapped in. From the very beginning of the song, he welcomes the listener to his nightmare, hinting that what they will experience may be terrifying or disturbing. He pleads for someone, anyone to save him from his own reality, and the chorus repeats the term "nightmare" to drive home the idea of the eternal agony he feels. The lyrics explain how he can't escape his own thoughts, even when they become deranged, as they spin around and around in his head.


The second verse emphasizes that the singer feels trapped inside his own mind, and the madness within it is something no one wants to experience. The lyrics suggest that he understands the potential danger or harm the people around him could face if they were to delve into the darker side of his mind. The bridge emphasizes his feelings of isolation, as he is all alone with his own absurdity, and his nightmare never ends. The song ultimately ends on a note of desperation, pleading for someone to end his nightmare.
