Nightmare Lyrics by Cirith Ungol

Forever Black

0

Burdened now forever by the thing that haunts my dreams
When I try to catch a glimpse of it, all I see is me

A specter in the master plan, sent here from below
Curses, death and chaos are the only things I know

I'm evil
That’s what's inside of me
I'm evil
That's all I’ll ever be

No escape and no atonement for the wicked deeds I've done
Raised the dead and cursed you all
And blotted out the sun

In my mind I've burned the world
A million times or more
Hope and pray my visions
Are just nightmares like before

I'm evil
That's what's inside of me
I'm evil
That's all I'll ever be

I'm evil
That's what's inside of me
I'm evil
That's all I'll ever be

Walk the line of dawn and twilight
The battles in my head
And begin the war eternal
Between the living and the dead

Listen to my warning
Heed every word I say
This madness has to stop
Before my nightmares turn to day

I'm evil
That’s what's inside of me
I'm evil
That's all I'll ever be
