[00:00.00]Nightmares - CHVRCHES
[00:00.10]Lyrics by:Iain Cook/Martin Doherty/Lauren Mayberry
[00:00.52]Composed by:Iain Cook/Martin Doherty/Lauren Mayberry
[00:00.94]I get the last word only because I write on the walls in my head
[00:11.34]
[00:14.83]Maybe some things are better unsaid
[00:20.05]
[00:20.61]To be left on the sheets of your bed
[00:25.61]
[00:29.42]Can I forgive if I forget
[00:33.14]All my mistakes and my regrets
[00:36.57]If all of this is for the best
[00:39.77]
[00:41.55]I've been singing that song again
[00:45.03]Another ballad that won't make amends
[00:48.10]
[00:48.62]It's been giving me nightmares again
[00:51.56]
[00:52.07]And they don't end
[00:53.31]
[00:55.54]I've been singing along again
[00:58.94]Another poem designed for revenge
[01:02.47]Now I'm living the nightmare again
[01:06.03]And it won't end
[01:07.41]
[01:11.03]Pity the actor canning the laughter
[01:16.52]I know I waited too long
[01:21.48]
[01:24.98]I played so dumb
[01:26.66]
[01:27.19]I was under the thumb
[01:30.17]
[01:30.72]A conclusion far too foregone
[01:35.39]
[01:39.57]Can I forgive if I forget
[01:43.20]All my mistakes and my regrets
[01:46.67]If all of this is for the best
[01:50.13]
[01:51.67]I've been singing that song again
[01:54.94]Another ballad that won't make amends
[01:58.46]It's been giving me nightmares again
[02:02.09]And they don't end
[02:03.38]
[02:05.52]I've been singing along again
[02:09.01]Another poem designed for revenge
[02:12.62]Now I'm living the nightmare again
[02:16.05]And it won't end
[02:17.39]
[02:21.51]For for forgiving
[02:24.22]
[02:24.73]For for forgetting
[02:27.50]
[02:28.27]For for forgiving
[02:31.08]
[02:31.76]For for forgetting
[02:34.67]
[02:49.62]It might have looked like love but it tasted a lot like blood
[02:53.33]What is it like to be the apple of your own eye
[02:55.72]
[02:56.24]Always loved
[02:56.75]
[02:57.29]Always seen
[02:57.84]
[02:58.77]Always gratified
[02:59.60]
[03:00.50]Always heard
[03:01.04]
[03:01.74]Always safe
[03:02.73]Always satisfied
[03:03.62]
[03:04.71]An ugly song came from a ballad for a friend
[03:07.64]If beauty is in the eye of the beholder it never ends
[03:10.22]
[03:10.91]I was no sweet dream but I was never a nightmare
[03:13.86]
[03:14.62]I'm glad that we can all now stop pretending that you cared
[03:17.37]I was no sweet dream but I was never a nightmare
[03:20.12]
[03:20.72]I love it when you talk about it to people who weren't there
[03:23.45]
[03:23.99]The arrogance and narcissism laid bare
[03:25.80]
[03:26.77]I was no sweet dream but I was never a nightmare
[03:29.83]I've been singing that song again
[03:33.07]Another ballad that won't make amends
[03:36.20]
[03:36.75]It's been giving me nightmares again
[03:40.18]And they don't end
[03:41.52]
[03:43.66]I've been singing along again
[03:47.10]Another poem designed for revenge
[03:50.72]Now I'm living the nightmare again
[03:53.83]
[03:54.34]And it won't end
[03:55.53]
