Now I lay me
down to sleep
all alone in the dark
with the secrets I keep
My eyes grow heavy
but can't get any rest
deep in my mind
fear and panic infest
In the air
there's a chill
like a ghost or a demon
ready to kill
Someday they may find me
after the blood has been shed
but for now all I hear
are these words in my head
Chorus
===========================
Die, Die, Die
Night Terrors
Die, Die, Die
Night Terrors
Die Die Die
Die Die Die
===========================
In the mirror of life
I see a reflection opaque
The effigy of my soul
as it burns at the stake
To sleep
perchance to dream
this feeling of doom
from a whisper to a scream
I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death
the hounds of Hell unleashed
I can feel their breath
I envision a crime scene
covered in dripping blood red
and all I hear over and over
are these words in my head
Chorus
===========================
Die, Die, Die
Night Terrors
Die, Die, Die
Night Terrors
life slips away
in the blink of an eye
now it is time
for all of us to die
