Nightmare
Born 1959, M, from Stoke, United KingdomWho closed the curtain?
Who cut off the light
Who was so certain
To block out the night?
What wanders out there
I don’t want to see?
Should I be aware
Is it coming for me?
The night trembles
The moon has gone
Dark disassembles
Battles not won
Clouds run to avoid
The fire in the sky
Artillery deployed
Bullets will fly
Death walks the walk
No one can evade
No time to talk
Under the blade
The music is done
Songs had its fill
The hand holds a gun
But no-one to kill
So open the curtain
And the world reborn
Landscape uncertain
Battered and torn
A nightmare you wake to
Cant get sleep from my head
Lies could be true
But Truth could be dead
