Nightmare Lyrics by David Correy

The Renaissance

2017

[Verse One]
I tried to drink the voices away
They're telling me that I can't change
I tried to tell myself I'm a man
But I can't stop the tears from coming
I'm scared that this isn't just a dream

[Chorus]
It's worse than a nightmare
Cause I'm the monster in me
I wanna set it free
Just let me be
I wanna set it free
Don't let it get me

[Verse Two]
I will not let my fear take me over
Come out, come out, show what you are
I will not live under the covers
I'm not afraid of-of the da-ark
So what's it going to take, what do I gotta do
To break these chains
I just wanna run, I wanna be away
It's just to much to take

[Chorus]
It's worse than a nightmare
Cause I'm the monster in me
I wanna set it free
Just let me be
I wanna set it free
Don't let it get me

[Chorus]
I gotta monster, I gotta monster
I gotta monster in me....woo!
Monster in me
I wanna set it free
Just let me be
I wanna set it free
Don't let it get me
