lyrics
Blood from a headstone,
‘Coz i need to get the truth out of the dead.
Thrown to the wolves now,
But I think you’ll find they come for you instead.
Too late for your salvation.
I've still got one more move to play.
No more manipulation.
You're diving on your own grenade.
I’ll bide my time while you waste yours.
A different kind of nightmare.
If you're digging my grave,
You better make room for two.
(A different kind of nightmare)
Too late, the choice you made
Is coming back to you.
Beware (beware) a different kind of nightmare.
The final act has begun now.
Not long until the curtains call.
But when it’s time to take your bow,
You see your world begin to fall.
I'll bite my tongue while you twist yours,
It's time to even up, even up the scores.
A different kind of nightmare.
If you're digging my grave,
You better make room for two.
(A different kind of nightmare)
Too late, the choice you made
Is coming back to you.
Beware (beware) a different kind of nightmare.
I see it in your eyes.
This is the eve of your demise.
Plenty of time to wonder,
When you're six feet under.
A different kind of nightmare.
If you're digging my grave,
You better make room for two.
(A different kind of nightmare)
Too late, the choice you made
Is coming back to you.
Beware (beware…)
a different kind of nightmare.
