Nightmare Girl

I'm distilling everything

She said into a potion

But it's always going

To my head in slow motion

Oh, nightmare girl



Things are getting weirder

At the speed of light

Nightmare girl

All this fever dreaming

Kills my appetite

For love and restless nights



Once she wanted me

To exercise her self-possession

And then failing that

She wanted lives and vivisection

Oh, nightmare girl



Things are getting weirder

At the speed of light

Nightmare girl

All this fever dreaming

Kills my appetite

For love and restless nights



I'm on a train to Brooklyn

I'm on the IRT

I've gotta think I'm saving the day

I get a call in the night

I get a call at three

I gotta go and make it okay



'Cause things are getting weirder

At the speed of light

Nightmare girl

All this fever dreaming

Kills my appetite

Nightmare girl



Things are getting weirder

Things are getting weirder

Things are getting weirder
