Bombs are falling
You've chewed off your tongue
Factions are warring
Both sides got it wrong
A two headed chimera
And a bucket of flies
there's sand on the motorway
a gaping mouth full of lies

But it was just a nightmare
It was just a nightmare
So don't get scared
No don't get scared
'Cause it was just a nightmare

A tree falls in a forest
A scream dies in your throat
Through mycelium networks
You build a moat
PowerPoint presentations
Watch The goal posts move
The growth of a nation
Another mine is defused

But it was just a nightmare
It was just a nightmare...
So don't get scared
No don't get scared...
'Cause it was just a nightmare

So don't get scared
No don't get scared...
'Cause it was just a nightmare

A river stops running
And turns around
Asks you what you were doing
Why you didn't make a sound
A little toddler
With the voice of a man
Asks you why you don't do more
When you can, when you can when you really c-c-can...

Tell him it was just a nightmare...
Yeah it was just a nightmare, it was just a nightmare
So don't get scared, no don't get scared

'Cause it was just a nightmare, it was just a nightmare
So don't get scared, no don't get scared
Cos it was just a nightmare, just a nightmare"
