[Verse 1]
I was afraid of coming undone
Being a burden, being a son
I was afraid of the look in my eye
The tears on your face in the desolate night
'Cause when you're afraid of everything
Everything is the stuff of nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares

[Chorus 1]
Oh oh oh ooh
If I die tomorrow, would you be upset?
Or would you be the one coming to get me?
Fallen by the way side of a never changing world, so tell me it’s alright

[Verse 2]
If you can reason, if you can stand
To put all of your faith in the palm of my hand
I will protect you, I will defend
So it never gets you ever again
'Cause when you're afraid of everything
Everything is the stuff of nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares

[Chorus 1]
Oh oh oh ooh
If I die tomorrow, would you be upset?
Or would you be the one coming to get me?!
Fallen by the way side of a never changing world, so tell me it’s alright

[Chorus 2]
Maybe I'm just dreaming
Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I was right
'Cause I can't imagine distances in our faiths
Is there any?
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Oh oh oh ooh
