A Nightmare (Not on Elm Street)
All your attempts failed
To lay me to rest
You shot me in the head
And stabbed me in the chest
You tried to hang me
I hung from your noose
But you didn't expect me
To actually get loose
I'm still living
After you slit my wrist
You injected a poison in me
That I was able to resist
You pushed me off a building
To the streets below
Took a bat to the back of my head
With a vicious blow
You tried to drown me in a pool
You ran me down with a car
Every attempt you've made
Has failed so far
Anything else you want to try
Lets see what you've got
This is getting boring
Hit me with your best shot
The fire didn't work
I justwalked right through
You're just wasting time
I'm still coming for you
You can beg and cry
Do you really think I care
I'm the epitome of evil
I'm your worst nightmare
Are you trying to wake up
Don't you dare
If you're in the waking world
I can't reach you there
Keep your eyes closed
Come face your worst fear
Don't you wake up
Get back here...
