Banished from the kingdom of rest
By the hand of the tormentor
Torn from peace and tranquility
Dragged into panic and fear
Kicking and screaming into sleeplessness
I'm a prisoner in this bed
Kicking and screaming into wakefulness
I will sleep when I am dead
Haunted by nightmares
Terror as I sleep
Haunted by nightmares
Horror ravages me
Exiled from the land of repose
By the claws of the persecutor
Torn from calm and contentment
Heaved into shock and dread
Kicking and screaming into sleeplessness
I'm a prisoner in this bed
Kicking and screaming into wakefulness
I will sleep when I am dead
Haunted by nightmares
Terror as I sleep
Haunted by nightmares
Horror ravages me
Terrified to close my eyes
Petrified of the hell in my mind
Insomnia induced by fear
Harassed by the hell that lives in me
