Hope Is A Nightmare

Song Description

The central idea of this song explores how hope, while often seen as positive, can sometimes be misleading and cause more pain in the long run. I wanted to express that duality by using metaphors for things that seem hopeful on the surface, but ultimately twist into something dangerous or detrimental. The song captures the emotional conflict of wanting to believe in hope, yet facing the harsh reality.

Song Length 3:56 Genre Rock - Heavy Metal
Lead Vocal Male Vocal Mood Troubled
Subject Doom, Worry Language English

Lyrics

The light at the end of the tunnel is the engulfing fire
Sweet things whispered from a treacherous liar
The truth gets revealed with its cruel pretender
Your salvation was just a surrender
The breeze I feel is deception's air
A haunting call that leads to nowhere
And I have the answers, but it's clear nobody cares
I don't dream anymore cause life is a nightmare
Nightmare
Yeah
Hope is a nightmare
Hope is a nightmare
Hope is a nightmare
