Once Upon a Nightmare
Lyrics
Once Upon a Nightmare
[Verse] In a world so bright and fair Lies a tale I cannot bear In the shadows hearts do break As innocence meets silent ache [Verse 2] He hid behind a smile so wide In his home where secrets pried Lured them in with cunning grace Left them in a dark embrace [Chorus] Oh the monster in disguise With his cold and empty eyes In the land of dreams and stars Painful truths leave lasting scars [Verse 3] Charming words and friendly cheer Masked the overwhelming fear In the gentle light of day Evil silently made its way [Verse 4] In his lair of twisted schemes Shattered hopes and broken dreams A dark tale without a hero Hearts left colder than zero [Chorus] Oh the monster in disguise With his cold and empty eyes In the land of dreams and stars Painful truths leave lasting scars
