This is how it evolved. I'm memorizing this though so it might not be exact (I'm not at home so I don't have access to the files.) VERSION 1 (DEMO): A good nightmare comes so rarely While ordinary dreams are so easy to find A good nightmare comes so rarely I’ll show you yours if you’ll show me mine (Dialogue) Our love is a secret Our love is a word Something so silenced Yet perfectly heard Our love is a whisper Our love is a breeze Something better left unspoken Like the song of the leaves on the dying trees A good nightmare comes so rarely Those pretty dreams have already taken too much of your time A good nightmare comes so rarely I’ll show you yours if you’ll show me mine (Dialogue) Sarah, you and I are not so different We’re trapped every day in a box You’re stuck day and night in this room, in this inn Every way out is fitted with locks But the time to decide has arrived And the choice must be made very soon Take a look at the sky, there’s a signal for you Behold the bloodshot moon Behold the bloodshot moon You can simply stay here for a lifetime or more With a face like a wet piece of bread You work and you slave till you’re fat, old and grey And perhaps you’d be better Perhaps you’d be better Perhaps you’d be better off dead (Dialogue) You can be anything that you want to be there Your god and his angels may care but I won’t You can do anything that you want to do there The devil may care The devil may care The devil may care but I don’t The devil may care The devil may care The devil may care but I don’t (Dialogue) There’s not enough to make your boredom go away There’s not enough to light your tired eyes There’s not enough to put some fire in a dreary day Everything that they taught you was nothing but lies Everything that they bought you was nothing but bribes And I know that you want more All you wanted was a piece of the night Now tell me where are you to go? For your whole life you must know You’ve been an angel Don’t you wonder what it’s like to be damned? To be damned! Sometimes we need the boogeyman Sometimes we need the boogeyman The thrill of the chase The heat of the fire The howl of the winds Are at your command Look at my face now and what do you see? Sometimes we need the boogeyman The beauty of darkness The magic of flight The endless adventures Miraculous trips Look at my face now and what do you see? Read my apocalypse This is your chance This is your time Break all the chains And give me your hand Sometimes it’s there right in front of your eyes Sometimes we need the boogeyman Sometimes we need the boogeyman Sometimes we need the boogeyman (Dialogue) A good nightmare comes so rarely I’ll show you yours if you’ll show me mine VERSION 2 (PREVIEWS): A good nightmare comes so rarely While ordinary dreams are so easy to find A good nightmare comes so rarely I’ll show you yours if you’ll show me mine (Dialogue) Sarah, you and I are not so different We’re trapped every day in a box You’re stuck day and night in this room, in this inn Every way out is fitted with locks But the time to decide has arrived And the choice must be made very soon Take a look at the sky, there’s a signal for you Behold the bloodshot moon (Dialogue) You can be anything that you want to be there Your god and his angels may care but I won’t You can do anything that you want to do there The devil may care The devil may care The devil may care but I don’t The devil may care The devil may care The devil may care but I don’t (Dialogue) There’s not enough to make your boredom go away There’s not enough to light your tired eyes There’s not enough to put some fire in a dreary day Everything that they taught you was nothing but lies Everything that they bought you was nothing but bribes And I know that you want more All you wanted was a piece of the night Now tell me where are you to go? For your whole life you must know You’ve been an angel Don’t you wonder what it’s like to be damned? To be damned! Sometimes we need the boogeyman Sometimes we need the boogeyman The thrill of the chase The heat of the fire The howl of the winds Are at your command Look at my face now and what do you see? Sometimes we need the boogeyman The beauty of darkness The magic of flight The endless adventures Miraculous trips Look at my face now and what do you see? Read my apocalypse This is your chance This is your time Break all the chains And give me your hand Sometimes it’s there right in front of your eyes Sometimes we need the boogeyman Sometimes we need the boogeyman Sometimes we need the boogeyman (Dialogue) A good nightmare comes so rarely While mediocre dreams are so easy to find A good nightmare comes so rarely I’ll show you yours if you’ll show me mine VERSION 3 (FINAL): A good nightmare comes so rarely While ordinary dreams are so easy to find A good nightmare comes so rarely I’ll show you yours if you’ll show me mine (Dialogue) You can choose to stay here And be a good wife some fine day But will it ever be enough? You know that it’ll never be enough You can work and pray here Till you’re fat and old and grey But will it ever be enough? You know that it’ll never be enough It’s not enough to make your boredom go away It’s not enough to light your tired eyes It’s not enough to put some passion in a dreary day Everything that they taught you was nothing but lies Everything that they bought you was nothing but bribes And I know that you want more All you wanted was a piece of the night So come along and take your share Stop the searching everywhere ’cause the answer’s here I invite you to the ball of your life Of your life! There’s so much more to the night There’s so much more to the night The beauty of darkness Miraculous lands You’ll get it all If you give me your hands Give me your heart and your soul will take flight Forever more in the night This is your chance This is your time Break all the chains And give me your hand Give me your soul and your heart will take flight Forever more in the night Forever mine in the night There’s so much more to the night A good nightmare comes so rarely While ordinary dreams are so easy to find A good nightmare comes so rarely I’ll show you yours if you’ll show me mine | |
