Dreaming Nightmares
- It's raining, it's pouring
 - The young man is snoring
 - Lying in the sea of burdens
 - Where he's surely certain
 - He'll live the rest of his life behind closed curtains
 - From the people he was hurting
 - But most of all, it was himself who caused the most harm
 - Hiding behind a religion, reading the book of Psalms
 - But already stained with the blood on the face of his palms
 - Trying to remain cool, collective, and calm
 - Knowing he's only a pawn
 - Moving one step at the break of dawn
 - On and on, the game plan is drawn
 - He can't stay on the straight and narrow
 - Defeat one by one on a crooked path seizing the pharaoh
 - The war is just beginning,
 - And there's no such thing as a hero
 - He maneuvers through the first wave blood being splattered
 - Friends and memories he had being shattered
 - Saying, “Damn, can this get any sadder
 - But right now it doesn't even matter”
 - As he approaches the last line
 - He's running out of time
 - Queen, Bishop, and Rook are coming from behind
 - At this rate, he'll put the King in check-mate
 - He comes to the King and asks,
 - “How you want your last breath?”
 - Queen came from behind and gave him a fast death
 - Woke up thanking God it was only a little rest.
