[Verse 1]

Don't blame a new love for the things and old one did

'Cause everyone will break your heart

Why's it so hard to say goodbye?

That's the reason I haven't tried

Don't hide your heart away behind a lock and key

Don't come crawling back to me

[Chorus]

This nightmare is swallowing me whole

This nightmare on me

This nightmare, the bloodrush takes its toll

This nightmare in me

[Verse 2]

Don't blame yourself for everything that you've seen

Blame it all on a bad dream

Why do you think you're the only one?

Who has the say in what's going on?

Don't go crawling 'round your heart for me

You broke the lock and stole the key

[Chorus]

This nightmare is swallowing me whole

This nightmare on me

This nightmare, the bloodrush takes its toll

This nightmare in me

[Bridge]

Don't blame a new love for things an old one did

'Cause everyone will break your heart

Dont blame a new love for the things an old one did

Don't come crawling back to me

Don't come crawling back to me

Don't come crawling back to me

[Chorus]

This nightmare is swallowing me whole

This nightmare on me

This nightmare, the bloodrush takes its toll

This nightmare in me
