Nightmares on Elm Street [Remix of Dasero]

[Intro] Streetlights flicker, shadows in the steam Cold wind crawling down Elm like a scream Footsteps echo in the cracks of the night Something in the dark don't feel quite right [Verse 1] Blades in the boiler room, scraping on steel Ash on the floor where the black smoke peels Burnt-out memories, faces in the flame Every empty hallway whispering my name Children on the sidewalk, skipping that line Won't step on the crack, scared of the sign Windows all nailed up, curtains stay drawn No one wants to see what hunts till dawn [Chorus] Welcome to the dead end, sleep if you dare Nightmares live forever in the cold night air Elm Street breathing like a beast in chains Once you close your eyes, I’m inside your veins Welcome to the dead end, hear my call Every little heartbeat pounding on the wall Dreams turn red when the clocks all slow On Elm Street, you never wake, you just let go [Verse 2] Shadows on the mattress twist and bend I carve little stories where your dreams end Stitches in the pillow, feathers like snow Blood in the gutter where the bad thoughts flow Sirens in the distance never come near They know my playground’s built on fear Sleepwalk saints with the guilt on their hands Sink in the sheets like quicksand lands [Chorus] Welcome to the dead end, sleep if you dare Nightmares live forever in the cold night air Elm Street breathing like a beast in chains Once you close your eyes, I’m inside your veins Welcome to the dead end, hear my call Every little heartbeat pounding on the wall Dreams turn red when the clocks all slow On Elm Street, you never wake, you just let go [Bridge] Count to four and hold your breath Five, six, I’m close to death Seven, eight, hear the boiler roar Nine, ten, you’re not safe no more Sheets turn tighter like a body bag Street sign swinging on a rusted flag Clock hands bleeding, crawling past three Every tick-tick-tock is a cut from me [Chorus] Welcome to the dead end, sleep if you dare Nightmares live forever in the cold night air Elm Street breathing like a beast in chains Once you close your eyes, I’m inside your veins Welcome to the dead end, hear my call Every little heartbeat pounding on the wall Dreams turn red when the clocks all slow On Elm Street, you never wake, you just let go [Outro] Streetlights fade out, silence in the steam Last breath rattles at the edge of a scream Name on the sidewalk, written in heat You left your soul on this cursed old street
