Nightmares
04:39

Shadows crawling up the wall
Lights are out
My feet struggle down the hall
Pure blackout
It’s the same as every night before
I lament
Even though I know I lock the door
Don’t forget
But the nightmares
Won’t go away
I’ve been waiting for
Another day
As I drift out of this world
It won’t go away
And the nightmares
They are here to stay
Panic grips my inner thoughts
More regret
Strangled by the pain of loss
No effect
I confess it’s been inside of me
All along
Can’t pretend it’s normal not to see
They belong
But the nightmares
Won’t go away
I’ve been waiting for
Another day
As I drift out of this world
It won’t go away
And the nightmares
They are here to stay
They said
Listen
There’s nothing to fear
You are
Going to be alright
But the nightmares
Won’t go away
I’ve been waiting for
Another day
As I drift out of this world
It won’t go away
And the nightmares
They are here to stay

Effigy (I'm Not An)
03:54
|

You are the only person I know
But I take you round to people who are on the go
Well you took me to a picture show
And what's the first thing I see
But them burning pictures of my head to toe, hey!
I'm not an effigy, no, no!
I asked you if you would be mad
If I packed my things and moved away to faraway land
Well I packed my things and I moved to this place
And what's the first thing I see
But them burning pictures of me in my face, hey!
I'm not an effigy, no, no!
Well I moved back from this faraway land
Walked right into a room with me mum and me dad
Well I saw my picture hanging on the wall
They tried to rip it and burn it
But it just withstood it all and I said hey!
I'm not an effigy
I'm not angry
I'm not an effigy... hey!
Well walking around this stinking town
I look up at the buildings and they get me down
Well I look to my left and then I look to my right
And then I realize they've been striking at me
Since the middle of last night, hey!
I'm not an effigy
