Nightmare

噩梦

(Now your nightmare comes to life)

（现在你的噩梦开始变成现实）

Dragged you down below, down to the devil's show

把你拖入黑暗，降到魔鬼的戏剧中

To be his guest forever (peace of mind is less than never)

永远做他的客人（心灵比从未平静还要少）

Hate to twist your mind, but God ain't on your side

不愿扭曲你的心智，但上帝不站你这边

An old acquaintance severed (burn the world, your last endeavor)

一位旧识被割舍（焚烧这个世界，你最后的努力）

Flesh is burning, you can smell it in the air

肉体在燃烧，你能闻到空气中的味道

'Cause men like you have such an easy soul to steal (steal)

因为像你这样的人，心那么容易被偷走（偷走）

So stand in line while they ink numbers in your head

所以排队等候，他们在你脑中刻上数字

You're now a slave until the end of time here

你现在是奴隶，直到永恒的尽头

Nothing stops the madness, turning, haunting, yearning, pull the trigger

没有什么能阻止疯狂，扭曲、缠绕、渴望，扣动扳机

You should have known the price of evil

你应该知道邪恶的代价

And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah

知道你属于这里，真是痛苦

Ooh, it's your f-in' nightmare

哦，这就是该死的噩梦

(While your nightmare comes to life)

（当你的噩梦开始变成现实）

Can't wake up in sweat 'cause it ain't over yet

不能在汗水中醒来，因为还没结束

Still dancing with your demons (victim of your own creation)

还在和你的魔鬼共舞（自己创造的受害者）

Beyond the will to fight, where all that's wrong is right

超越抗争的意志，那些错的变成对的

Where hate don't need a reason (loathing self-assassination)

恨不需要理由（厌恶自我暗杀）

You've been lied to just to rape you of your sight

你曾被谎言所骗，只为玷污你的视线

And now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel (feel)

他们竟敢告诉你该怎么感觉（感觉）

So sedated as they medicate your brain

如此麻醉，以药物控制你的大脑

And while you slowly go insane, they tell you

当你逐渐发疯，他们告诉你

"Given with the best intentions, help you with your complications"

“出于最好的意图，帮助你解决困难”

You should have known the price of evil

你应该知道邪恶的代价

And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah

知道你属于这里，真是疼

No one to call, everybody to fear

没人可打电话，人人都让人害怕

Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah

你悲剧的命运如此清晰，真是

Ooh, it's your f-in' nightmare

哦，这就是你该死的噩梦

And I know you hear their voices (calling from above)

And I know they may seem real (these signals of love)

But our life's made up of choices (some without appeal)

They took for granted, your soul, and it's ours now to steal

他们理所当然地占有你的灵魂，现在它归我所有
