Nightmare
Potemtum and Solitude Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Said you'd never go
Said we would be always
Said our love would grow
But now all you are
Is a beautiful, a beautiful nightmare
You were the one for me
I thought you could see
I thought we'd agreed
The lies you hide behind
So sharp and unrefined
Can't get you out my mind
My brain redesigned
You loaded like a gun
Pulled the trigger just for fun
So hard to prepare
From the damage of a nightmare
Said you'd never leave me
Said you'd never go
Said we would be always
Said our love would grow
Said you'd never leave me
Said you'd never go
Said we would be always
Said our love would grow
You haunt my dreams
Can't let out screams
Stuck in your regime
I'm all numb bones
Your heart cold stone
I'm all alone
You hit me like a train
A bullet to my brain
All that suffering and pain
It's driving me insane
So hard to prepare
From the damage of a nightmare
Said you'd never leave me
Said you'd never go
Said we would be always
Said our love would grow
Said you'd never leave me
Said you'd never go
Said we would be always
Said our love would grow
Now I know we're through
Now I know it wasn't true
Now I know you didn't care
My beautiful nightmare
Said you'd never leave me
Said you'd never go
(My nightmare)
Said we would be always
Said our love would grow
Said you'd never leave me
Said you'd never go
Said we would be always
My beautiful
The lyrics of "Nightmare" by Potemtum and Solitude tell the story of a person who has been betrayed by someone they loved deeply. The first stanza sets up the theme of the song by recollecting how the love was meant to be forever and the promises that were made. But now, the person they loved has turned into a nightmare, hurtful and destructive. The second and third stanzas describe the pain that the person is going through, encapsulating their mental state from the trauma of their breakup. The use of metaphors, like being hit by a train or being loaded like a gun, further portrays the severity of the situation. The final stanza brings closure to the song with the realization that the love didn't last forever after all and that the person they once loved is now a bitter memory, forever haunted by the beautiful nightmare.

Said you'd never leave me
You gave me a promise that you would never abandon me
Said you'd never go
You gave me a promise that you would never leave me
Said we would be always
You gave me a promise that we would always be together
Said our love would grow
You gave me a promise that our love would deepen as time went on
But now all you are
However, now all that you represent in my life is
Is a beautiful, a beautiful nightmare
a nightmare that is both dreadful yet beautiful
You were the one for me
I believed that you were my soulmate
I thought you could see
I believed that you could understand me
Forever we would be
I believed that we would be together forever
I thought we'd agreed
I believed that we were on the same page about our life together
The lies you hide behind
The deceitful statements that you use to cover your true intentions
So sharp and unrefined
The lies are clear and lacking in subtlety
Can't get you out my mind
I cannot stop thinking about you
My brain redesigned
My mind has been altered by my experiences with you
You loaded like a gun
You are a dangerous force in my life
Pulled the trigger just for fun
You hurt me for your own amusement
So hard to prepare
It is difficult to be ready for
From the damage of a nightmare
the harm caused by a terrifying dream
You haunt my dreams
You are a recurrent presence in my nightmares
Can't let out screams
I cannot vocalize my distress
Stuck in your regime
I am trapped in your oppressive system
I'm all numb bones
I am emotionally and physically exhausted
Your heart cold stone
You are devoid of empathy and compassion
I'm all alone
I am isolated and without support
You hit me like a train
You struck me with an overwhelming force
A bullet to my brain
An intense and damaging attack on my psyche
All that suffering and pain
The agony and torment that I have endured
It's driving me insane
It is causing me to lose my mental stability
Now I know we're through
I have come to the realization that our relationship has ended
Now I know it wasn't true
I have come to the realization that your promises and declarations of love were false
Now I know you didn't care
I have come to the realization that you were never truly invested in our relationship
My beautiful nightmare
You are an alluring yet agonizing force in my life
Said you'd never leave me
You promised me that you would never abandon me
Said you'd never go
You promised me that you would never leave me
Said we would be always
You promised me that we would be together forever
Said our love would grow
You promised me that our love would flourish and deepen with time
