Into the Nightmare

The Seekers drift into a collective dream
 Where they have to explore
 A dark tunnel inside a rock
 That splits into different path for each of them
 One sees a vision of home long forgotten
 Another one hears his dead parents calling him
 The girl dreams of fame the world over
 And all of them follow their reveries, oh the enchanted and doomed ones
 Every beat of your heart takes you further from your past
 Can you ever escape it? Sprinting away from it, betraying it
 Will never excuse mistakes, your nightmares will never stop and
 There's no choice but to fight them
 All their dreams turned to nightmares, the one
 Who saw his home is now endlessly falling off the roof
 The one who had heard his parents' voices is being pulled
 Into their grave, and the girl — she gets the worst of all
 Alone in the dark she faces her greatest fear
 All of their deepest fears now confront them
 All the wrongs they've ever done rise out of the oblivion
 Face to face with their own worst enemies — themselves
 They have to fight to be reborn — or die, oh the desperate ones
 It was hard, those minutes felt like the end of the world
 Bloodless faces, exhausted bodies, no one will be left to survive
 But the fight ends abruptly, and they see
 The way out — into a strange room filled with a transcendent light
 Only the girl couldn't make it out of the dark and in her dream
 A vile, wicked old man snatched her by the hand
 The foulest fiend from her childhood nightmares, he took her
 Away from her friends and her lover
 He sees his true love being dragged into nothingness
 Without a second thought he gives chase to the two shadows
 Into a kaleidoscope of psychotic visions he follows them
 Until he finds himself in a strangely familiar dimension
 Every beat of your heart takes you further from your past
 Can you ever escape it? Sprinting away from it, betraying it
 Will never excuse mistakes, your nightmares will never stop and
 There's no choice but to fight them
 He finds himself in a crowded city center
 And he sees her walking in a crowd
 And she turns away like a stranger when he reaches out to her
 And he stays there forever, a stranger needed by no one
