[Intro — Whispered, Haunting] Close my eyes… I know you're there. The man with the sadistic smile And the burned face I adore. Freddy… come find me. [Verse 1 — Clean, Dark Female Vocals] Elm Street sleeps beneath the rain, I hear your footsteps call my name. Four blades dancing in the night, Your shadow makes the darkness bright. The boiler breathes, the red lights glow, Through twisted halls where lost souls go. You wear your scars like a crown of sin, And every nightmare pulls me in. [Pre-Chorus — Slow, Crushing Build] The clock strikes twelve, The walls turn red. I'd trade the dawn To share your bed. [Chorus — Huge, Melodic Sludge Metal] If only in my dreams, My body quivers till I scream. Of every world that keeps us torn, I'll love you through the night reborn. If only in my dreams, Where nothing's what it seems. Let heaven sleep, let daylight scream, I'll be yours—if only in my dreams. [Verse 2 — Gritty Vocals, Heavy Riffs] The boiler room is burning gold, Your gloved hand turns my blood to cold. A striped red sweater, full of lust and sin, The nightmare starts—I welcome it in. The phone whispers from the wall, The bedroom stretches, shadows crawl. You bend the rules of time and sleep, A wicked promise yours to keep. [Pre-Chorus — Rising Tension] No silver cross, No morning light, Could make me leave Your arms tonight. [Chorus — Heavier, Layered Vocals] If only in my dreams, My body quivers till I scream. Of every world that keeps us torn, I'll love you through the night reborn. If only in my dreams, Where nothing's what it seems. Let heaven sleep, let daylight scream, I'll be yours—if only in my dreams. [Bridge — Half-Time Sludge Breakdown] One, two… the shadows creep. Three, four… don't fall asleep. Five, six… your fingers gleam. Seven, eight… come haunt my dreams. [Whispered] What if I never want to wake? [Massive Breakdown — Roared Vocals] TAKE THE NIGHT! TAKE MY FEAR! DRAG ME WHERE THE DEAD DRAW NEAR! BURN THE SKY! BROKEN ! TO THE EXTREME~~~~~~ MAKE ME YOURS— IF ONLY IN MY DREAMS! [Final Chorus — Melodic, Desperate, Cinematic] If only in my dreams, You're everything you seem. My beautiful, unholy flame, I'd lose my soul to speak your name. If only in my dreams, Love lives where darkness breathes. And when the final morning gleams, Come back to me— IF ONLY IN MY DREAMS! [Outro — Clean Vocals Fading Into Feedback] Elm Street sleeps… But I stay awake. I close my eyes… For your love's sake. Freddy… Find me again. If only… If only in my dreams…
