Nightmares
LA SCALTRA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dreaming so unreal
Demons coming through shining lights
Reflections of a new day, forsaken feelings inside
Dying upon shadows, this craving emptiness
Going through nightmares, nightmares

Cold forgotten worlds, whispering my name
In nightmares, nightmares

Find beauty in darkness, in the night
The essence of love and devotion
Find beauty in darkness, in the night
The essence of love and devotion

As the lights fade the world turns to gray
A new dawn will rise for a new horizon
As I crave for the night, longing for your passion
It burns inside of me
Going through nightmares, nightmares

Cold forgotten worlds whispering my name
In nightmares, nightmares

Find beauty in darkness, in the night
The essence of love and devotion




Find beauty in darkness, in the night
The essence of love and devotion
