    Default Tribute to Our Nightmares

    I was in a band awhile ago called "Far From Sundown" and this is one of the songs I wrote that I'm extremely proud of. both musically and lyrically. But of course, I'm always eager for feedback and wouldn't mind hearing what other think about this song.

    This song is truly open for ones own interpretation, but for me, I wrote this song with the intention to tell the story of times when you feel like that reoccurring nightmare seems more real then we'd like it. Almost like it takes over and we can't escape it. Thus the name "Tribute to Our Nightmares". I'd like to think that the music I wrote for it matches the emotion I want others to feel. But please feel free to compliment, bash, review or even tell me what you feel when you hear this song. Either way, I hope you enjoy! Here is a link to a LIVE version of the song: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/384541

    Edit: this is not me singing btw.

    Tribute To Our Nightmares


    You can’t see them
    ‘Cause they’re inside of you
    Do you ever get that feeling
    Like death is just waiting for you

    Give into all the shadows
    Purge your mind of memories
    Don’t be frightened by the echoes
    You will soon see what they’ve seen

    You will soon see the demons
    The ones who steal souls
    You’ll find your conviction,
    Amended and rewrote

    You will see the end, right before your eyes

    Here they come again
    The nightmares in your head
    The demons march inside
    Bring your horrors to life

    The pendulum swings
    As the days go by
    Can you hear the demons sing
    “Nightmares rise!”


    So it begins, feel that fear
    Reach for help, scream, but no one hears
    Feel your life, just fading away
    Your soul is theirs, it’s theirs to break

    Do you remember that feeling
    Remember what it’s like
    Are you another victim
    To the emptiness inside

    You will see the end, right before your eyes

    Here they come again
    The nightmares in your head
    The demons march inside
    Bring your horrors to life

    The pendulum swings
    As the days go by
    Can you hear the demons sing
    “Nightmares rise!”


    A slave to the mind
    Devours faith inside
    Breaking the barrier
    To the dreams that you hide

    They’ll rip you apart
    Make you scream to the stars
    You can struggle and cry,
    But your nightmares still alive

    Surely you can't just come here expecting a review without even looking at anyone else's work first. Bad vibes and I doubt anyone will be prepared to review whilst you just ignore everyone else's work.
