Lyrics:

Rest your head, heres a lullaby
A melody for heavy eyes
Early to bed, early to die
Welcome to your worst nightmare

Fast asleep, its all in your head now, past the street where they cursed my name
But I wont be forsaken
Craven my revenge from the shallow grave, where I went down in flames
The beast has been awakened

When night comes creeping, my cruel hand will rock you to sleep

Im The American Nightmare, with American dreams
Of countin the bodies while you count sheep
Im the American nightmare, yeah Im livin the dream
Im slashing my way through the golden age of the silver scream
Sweet dreams

Fell in love with hate cause evil fit like a glove
Its fate that Im still here
And I wont 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 its just pretend
Youll never ever sleep again
All your friends are fucking dead
You cant turn down your own death bed

When night comes creeping, my cruel hand will rock you to sleep

Im the American Nightmare, with American dreams
Of countin the bodies while you count sheep

Im the American Nightmare, yeah Im livin the dream
Im slashing my way through the golden age of the silver scream

Im the American Nightmare, Im the man of your dreams
Where the glove is god, so Im sinking my claws in the silver scream

One, two, dreams do come true
Three, four, see you at the morgue
Five, six, he'll get his fix
Seven, eight, now shake the twisted hand of fate
Now shake the twisted hand of fate

All your friends are fucking dead

When night comes creeping, my cruel hand will rock you to sleep

Im the American Nightmare, with American dreams
Of countin the bodies while you count sheep

Im the American Nightmare, yeah Im livin the dream
Im slashing my way through the golden age of the silver scream

Im the American Nightmare, Im the man of your dreams
Where the glove is god, so Im sinking my claws in the silver scream
