[Spoken Word from Spencer Charnas]
You're not falling asleep yet, are you California?

[Intro/Sample]
Getting ready for bed at a regular time is one of the most important habits you can learn. David has probably never stopped to think what a wonderful thing sleep is. Dreams are normal too. Going to bed at a regular time each night makes it easier to go right off to sleep

[Verse 1: Spencer Charnas, Spencer Charnas & Ricky Armellino ]
Rest your head, here's a lullaby
A melody for heavy eyes
Early to bed, early to die
Welcome to your worst nightmare
Are we fucking ready?

[Verse 2: Spencer Charnas, Joe Occhiuti, Ricky Armellino]
Fast asleep, it's all in your head now
Past thе street where they cursеd my name
But I won't be forsaken
Craven my revenge from the shallow grave
Where I went down in flames
The beast has been awakened

[Pre-Chorus: Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti, Joe Occhiuti]
When night comes creeping
My cruel hand will rock you to sleep

[Chorus: Spencer Charnas, Crowd, Ricky Armellino]
I'm the American nightmare
With American dreams
Of countin' the bodies while you count sheep
I'm the American nightmare
Yeah, I'm living the dream
I'm slashing my way through the golden age of the silver scream
Sweet dreams
Oh
[Spoken Word from Spencer Charnas]
I need you to get your fucking claws in the sky

[Verse 3: Spencer Charnas, Joe Occhiuti, Ricky Armellino]
Fell in love with hate 'cause evil fit like a glove
It's fate that I'm still here
And I won't be forsaken
Wicked when I was just a man
But sickening now and fed by fear
The beast has been awakened now
They all think it's just pretend (What is it?)
You'll never, ever sleep again
All your friends are fucking dead
Middle fingers up
You can't turn down your own deathbed

[Pre-Chorus: Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti, Joe Occhiuti]
When night comes creeping
My cruel hand will rock you to sleep

[Chorus: Spencer Charnas, Spencer Charnas & Ricky Armellino, Ricky Armellino, Patrick Galante]
I'm the American nightmare
With American dreams
Of countin' the bodies while you count sheep
I'm the American nightmare
Yeah, I'm living the dream
I'm slashing my way through the golden age of the silver scream
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm the American nightmare
I'm the man of the dreams
Where the glove is God
So I'm sinking my claws in the silver scream
[Bridge: Sample, Spencer Charnas, Spencer Charnas & Ricky Armellino, Patrick Galante]
One, two, dreams do come true (Count it)
Three, four, see you at the morgue
Five, six, he'll get his fix (Send us to Hell)
Seven, eight, now shake the twisted hand of fate
No!
Now shake the twisted hand of fate
No!
All your friends are fucking dead
One more time

[Pre-Chorus: Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti, Joe Occhiuti]
When night comes creeping
My cruel hand will rock you to sleep (Sing it)

[Chorus: Spencer Charnas, Spencer Charnas & Ricky Armellino, Ricky Armellino, Patrick Galante]
I'm the American nightmare
With American dreams
Of countin' the bodies while you count sheep
I'm the American nightmare
Yeah, I'm living the dream
I'm slashing my way through the golden age of the silver scream
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm the American nightmare
I'm the man of the dreams
Where the glove is God
So I'm sinking my claws in the silver scream
