Nightmar Lyrics - Halsey

Now I lay me down to sleep 

I pray the Lord, my soul to keep 

If I shall die before I wake 

I pray the Lord, my soul to take 

I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life 

I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind 

They talk shit, but I love it every time 

And I realize 

I've tasted blood and it is sweet 

I've had the rug pulled beneath my feet 

I've trusted lies and trusted men 

Broke down and put myself back together again 

Stared in the mirror and punched it to shatters 

Collected the pieces and picked out a dagger 

I've pinched my skin in between my two fingers 

And wished I could cut some parts off with some scissors

"Come on, little lady, give us a smile" 

No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about 

I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for 

A moment to say I don't owe you a goddamn thing 

I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life 

I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind 

They talk shit, but I love it every time 

And I realize 

I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night 

That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night 

No, I won't smile, but I'll show you my teeth 

And I'm a let you speak, if you just let me breathe 

I've been polite, but won't be caught dead 

Lettin' a man tell me what I should do in my bed 

Keep my exes in check in my basement 

'Cause kindness is weakness, or worse, you're complacent 

I could play nice or I could be a bully 

I'm tired and angry, but somebody should be 

"Come on, little lady, give us a smile" 

No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about 

I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for 

A moment to say I don't owe you a goddamn thing 

I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life 

I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind 

They talk shit, but I love it every time 

And I realize 

I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life 

I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind 

They talk shit, but I love it every time 

And I realize 

Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware 

But I'd rather be a real nightmare, than die unaware, yeah 

Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware 

But I'm glad to be a real nightmare, so save me your prayers 

I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life 

I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind 

They talk shit, but I love it every time 

And I realize 

I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life 

I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind 

They talk shit, but I love it every time 

And I realize 

I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night 

That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night
