Once upon a nightmare
|
Once upon a time
|
You're running from temptation
|
You got lost
|
And found that you don't
|
|
Belong to anybody
|
You're all the same
|
Just another number
|
Cross it out
|
Whenever you don't behave
|
|
Someone got the doctor
|
He knows what to do
|
Throw some bones and mumble
|
The devil's inside of you
|
|
It might be contagious
|
It might change the plan
|
Get back in your tiny boxes
|
Even if you can't
|
We say you can
|
|
Join the congregation
|
Everybody's got to get in line and
|
We never justify
|
The choir sings a never-ending lie
|
|
When you thought you were free
|
You didn't need a reason
|
No reason to survive
|
|
As the big door closes
|
And you waiting for the nail
|
Somebody tell the world
|
You're buried alive
|
|
Once upon a nightmare
|
Once upon a time
|
You're running from tomorrow
|
You got lost
|
And found that another
|
Day has turned to ashes
|
Taken by the wind
|
Frozen seeds of sorrow
|
Never to begin
|
|
Join the celebration
|
And everybody's got to get in line and
|
We never justify
|
The choir sings a never-ending lie
|
|
When you thought you were free
|
You did not need a reason
|
No reason to survive
|
|
As the big door closes
|
And you waiting for the mail
|
Somebody tell the world
|
You're buried alive
|
|
One more nightmare
|
Just one more time
|
Join the congregation
|
Everybody get in line
|
|
Celebration
|
The choir sings a lie
|
As you call
|
The hammer falls
|
And no one hears you cry
|
I'm buried alive
|
