Halsey - Nightmare

[00:02.64] Now I lay me down to sleep

[00:04.39] I pray the Lord my soul to keep

[00:06.89] If I shall die before I 'wake

[00:09.14] I pray the Lord my soul to take

[00:12.89] I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life

[00:17.14] I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind

[00:20.39] They talk shit, but I love it every time

[00:23.64] And I realize

[00:25.89] I've tasted blood and it is sweet

[00:29.64] I've had the rug pulled beneath my feet

[00:32.89] I've trusted lies and trusted men

[00:36.39] Broke down and put myself back together again

[00:39.64] Stared in the mirror and punched it to shatters

[00:42.39] Collected the pieces and picked out a dagger

[00:45.39] I've pinched my skin in between my two fingers

[00:48.89] And wished I could cut some parts off with some scissors

[00:52.39] "Come on, little lady, give us a smile"

[00:55.14] No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about

[00:58.39] I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for

[01:02.14] A moment to say I don't owe you a goddamn thing

[01:06.14] I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life

[01:09.64] I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind

[01:12.89] They talk shit, but I love it every time

[01:15.89] And I realize

[01:18.64] I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night

[01:21.39] That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night

[01:31.89] No, I won't smile, but I'll show you my teeth

[01:35.39] And I'ma let you speak if you just let me breathe

[01:38.89] I've been polite, but won't be caught dead

[01:42.14] Lettin' a man tell me what I should do in my bed

[01:45.64] Keep my exes in check in my basement

[01:48.14] 'Cause kindness is weakness, or worse, you're complacent

[01:51.39] I could play nice or I could be a bully

[01:54.64] I'm tired and angry, but somebody should be

[01:58.39] "Come on, little lady, give us a smile"

[02:00.89] No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about

[02:04.14] I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for

[02:07.89] A moment to say I don't owe you a goddamn thing

[02:11.89] I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life

[02:15.39] I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind

[02:18.64] They talk shit, but I love it every time

[02:22.14] And I realize

[02:24.14] I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life

[02:28.39] I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind

[02:32.14] They talk shit, but I love it every time

[02:35.14] And I realize

[02:37.64] Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware

[02:43.89] But I'd rather be a real nightmare than die unaware, yeah

[02:50.89] Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware

[02:56.64] But I'm glad to be a real nightmare, so save me your prayers

[03:03.64] I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life

[03:07.89] I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind

[03:11.39] They talk shit, but I love it every time

[03:14.39] And I realize

[03:16.64] I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life

[03:21.14] I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind

[03:24.64] They talk shit, but I love it every time

[03:27.64] And I realize

[03:30.64] I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night

[03:44.14] That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night
