Nightwish – Slaying The Dreamer

Nightwish – Slaying The Dreamer Lyrics

Artist: Nightwish
Song: Slaying The Dreamer

I’m a priest for the poorest sacrifice (Crowd cheering)
I’m but a raft in a sea of sorrow and greed
You bathed in my wine
Drank from my cup, mocked my rhyme

Your slit tongues licked my aching wounds
Put a stake through my heart!
And drag me into sunlight
So awake for your greed

As you’re slaying the dreamer
Swansong for the Wish of Night
God it hurts, give a name to the pain
Our primrose path to hell is growing weed

Put a stake through my heart!
And drag me into sunlight
So awake for your greed
As you’re slaying the dreamer

Blame me, it’s me
Coward, a good-for-nothing scapegoat
Dumb kid, living a dream
Romantic only on paper

Tell me why you took all that was mine!
Stay as you lay – don’t lеad me astray!
Tell me why you took all that was minе!
Stay as you lay – don’t lead me astray!

Wake up, mow the weed
You’d be nothing without me
Take my life if you have the heart to die
You b#stards tainted my tool

Raped my words, played me fool
Gather your precious glitter and leave me be
The Great Ones are all dead
And I’m tired, too

I truly hate you all!
