Lyrics
Scratched by a Nightmare
Verse
The devil paid a visit to my sleep last night
He was filled with rage and fire and just itchin' for a fight
He came at me a fireball - red eyes that burned the night
And he scratched me with a nightmare - before he said good night
Chorus
I was scratched by a nightmare and my blood is runnin' cold
I was screamin' out loud bout my soul that I had sold
Scratched by a nightmare in the middle of the night
Now I'm sweatin' and I'm shakin' like I'm fightn' for my life
For my life
Verse
There was spirits in black hoods closin' in on everything
There were ghosts and fog and brimstone and all kinds of scary things
In the fury and the chaos I felt his red hot sting
He scratched me with a nightmare from his sharp and fiery wing
Chorus
I was scratched by a nightmare and my blood is runnin' cold
I was screamin' out loud bout my soul that I had sold
Scratched by a nightmare in the middle of the night
Now I'm sweatin' and I'm shakin' like I'm fightn' for my life
For my life
Solo
Verse
I heard he paid these visits from the stories of the dead
I knew that he would tangle when my soul was safe in bed
But what they never told me was the terror in his call
And tho I fought my damndest - I was torn and ripped and all
Chorus
I was scratched by a nightmare and my blood is runnin' cold
I was screamin' out loud bout my soul that I had sold
Scratched by a nightmare in the middle of the night
Now I'm sweatin' and I'm shakin' like I'm fightn' for my life
For my life
