Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The dream stealer comes at night
Sneaks into our minds so deep
Silent, sly, and out of sight
A mental parasite
Takes the hopes we hold so dear
Corrupts our hearts with doubts and fear
Makes us question all we know
Fills our minds with sorrow's flow
[PreChorus]
Dream stealer knows our thoughts
Turns them into twisted knots
Takes the light that shines within
Leaves us lost in shadows dim
[Chorus]
Dream stealer
It creeps and crawls
Dream stealer
A shadow self that constantly calls
[PostChorus]
It whispers lies into our minds
And twists the truth till we are blind
[Verse 2]
It tells us we are not enough
Makes us feel like we are stuck
Steals the passion that we crave
Fills our souls with empty graves
[PreChorus]
Dream stealer knows our thoughts
Turns them into twisted knots
Takes the light that shines within
Leaves us lost in shadows dim
[Chorus]
Dream stealer
It creeps and crawls
Dream stealer
A shadow self that constantly calls
Dream stealer
With twisted claws
Dream stealer
A shadow self that constantly calls
[PostChorus]
It whispers lies into our minds
And twists the truth till we are blind
It creeps and crawls
A shadow self that always calls
[PreChorus]
The dream stealer knows our thoughts
Turns them into twisted knots
Takes the light that shines within
Leaves us lost in shadows dim
[Chorus]
Dream stealer
It creeps and crawls
Dream stealer
A shadow self that constantly calls
(Dream stealer) It whispers lies into our minds
And twists the truth till we are blind (Dream stealer)
A shadow self that constantly calls
