Nightmare
London After Midnight Lyrics
Long after midnight, on a night like this
I'd sit by my black-light and dream of your kiss
Pulsating music filled my room and my head
And I dreamed what it'd be like to have you in my bed
I'm your best night, your best nightmare
I'm your best night, your best nightmare
And then it happened, you were in my arms
Your lips on my throat, your hands on my, on my...
The pain and the pleasure could do mortals in
How could you know what I'm thinking of?
To me lust can be as beautiful as love
Here tonight, your pure heart and soul
Untainted passion should have no control
I'm your best night, your best nightmare
I'm your best night, your best nightmare
She asked me if I... I told her the truth
I said "I'm sorry it takes me longer than you"
She smiled and blushed and continued to grind
And promised to make me go out of my mind
Returning her promise she came to a halt
Licking my lips I tasted her salt
Then she sat up and gasped and clutched at her breast
I thought she was coming I'd never have guessed
That as she grew pale, as white as a flower
She collapsed to the floor and was dead in an hour.
Your best nightmare, your best
Your best nightmare, your best

London After Midnight (LAM) is a music project formed in the 1990s by singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Sean Brennan.

LAM has retained and nurtured the political and socially aware element of the later punk scene that virtually vanished from all music scenes in the early 90s, and has developed as a passionate and political dark rock-music entity. LAM has a large worldwide following, with many gothic rock fans (LAM shuns labels such as "gothic", however, saying that labels limit an artist's creative realm and also destructively divides audiences- unfortunately too many people define themselves by the style of music they listen to and refuse to expand beyond that).
LAM has gained a large and loyal following all over the world, from the USA to Europe to Latin America (where the live band has toured extensively), and beyond. LAM has headlined and co-headlined concerts and major festivals with bands like The Cure, Green Day, HIM (HIM has cited LAM a favorite artist), Rammstein, Soft Cell and many more. LAM has performed to crowds of over 30,000 people as headliner and co-headliner on major music festivals around the world. However, London After Midnight maintains a strong underground and independent "personality" despite being a top seller (charting in the top 10 and top 20 German DAC, and other European independent charts, with each of 4 CDs released) and a major draw at music festivals year after year.
Songwriter, instrumentalist, producer and founder Sean Brennan is known for his strong stances in favor of animal rights, pro-environmental and human rights issues, anti-corporate control of media, and support for progressive and liberal political and social causes. Whatever the approach or subject matter, the music of London After Midnight is deeply touching, powerful, socially aware, romantic, emotional, disturbing, haunting, moving, and often exhibits a morbid wit with its sardonic humor (listen to the tongue-in-cheek "Your Best Nightmare" and try not to think of an Edward Gorey story).
LAM is all this, while at the same time appealing to a wide variety of people. There really is no classification that fits London After Midnight (despite LAM's "dark" image) because the music is so varied and the lyrical content (and even LAM's personality and causes) are unique and uncommon in today's music scene (often breaking boundaries- much to the outrage of people who live and die by genre labels). Sean Brennan shuns all labels (as any artist worth their salt will do) and the music he creates can really only be classified as "London After Midnight".
