SIA

HALSEY - Nightmare


[Intro]
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord, my soul to keep
If I shall die before I 'wake
I pray the Lord, my soul to take

[Chorus]
I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize

[Verse 1]
I've tasted blood and it is sweet
I've had the rug pulled beneath my feet
I've trusted lies and trusted men
Broke down and put myself back together again
Stared in the mirror and punched it to shatters
Collected the pieces and picked out a dagger
I've pinched my skin in between my two fingers
And wished I could cut some parts off with some scissors

[Pre-Chorus]
"Come on, little lady, give us a smile"
No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about
I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for
A moment to say I don't owe you a goddamn thing

[Chorus]
I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize

[Post-Chorus]
I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night
That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night

[Verse 2]
No, I won't smile, but I'll show you my teeth
And I'ma let you speak if you just let me breathe
I've been polite, but won't be caught dead
Lettin' a man tell me what I should do in my bed
Keep my exes in check in my basement
'Cause kindness is weakness, or worse, you're complacent
I could play nice or I could be a bully
I'm tired and angry, but somebody should be

[Pre-Chorus]
"Come on, little lady, give us a smile"
No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about
I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for
A moment to say I don't owe you a goddamn thing

[Chorus]
I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize
I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize

[Bridge]
Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware
But I'd rather be a real nightmare, than die unaware, yeah
Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware
But I'm glad to be a real nightmare, so save me your prayers

[Chorus]
I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize
I, I keep a record of the wreckage in my life
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
They talk shit, but I love it every time
And I realize

[Post-Chorus]
I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night
That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night

[Letra Traducida al Español]

[Intro]
Ahora me recuesto a fin de dormir
Le rezo a Dios que cuide mi alma
Si debo morir antes de despertar
Le rezo a Dios que se lleve mi alma

[Chorus]
Guardo un registro del desastre de mi vida
Tengo que reconocer que hay un arma en mi mente
Hablan pestes, pero me encanta
Y soy consciente de ello

[Verse 1]
Probé la sangre y es dulce
Me jalaron la alfombra bajo mis pies
Creí en mentiras y creí en los hombres
Fui desbaratada y me repuse de nuevo
Ví el espejo y lo reduje a pedazos
Junté las piezas y cogí una daga
Me pinché la piel entre mis dedos
Y desearía haberme cortado algunas partes con tijeras

[Pre-Chorus]
"Vamos, señorita, danos una sonrisa"
No, no tengo nada por que reír
No tengo nadie por quien reír, esperé mucho por
Un momento para decirte que no te debo nada

[Chorus]

[Post-Chorus]
No soy un dulce sueño, sino una noche infernal
No soy un dulce sueño, sino una noche infernal

[Verse 2]
No, no sonreiré, sino que te mostraré los dientes
Y te dejaré hablar si me dejas respirar
He sido educada, pero no me atraparán muerta
Dejando que un hombre me diga que hacer en mi cama
Mantengo a mis exs a raya en mi sótano
Porque la bondad es debilidad, o peor, eres complaciente
Podría ser amable o podría ser una abusiva
Estoy cansada y molesta, pero alguien debería estarlo

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Alguien como yo puede ser una verdadera pesadilla, completamente consciente
Pero prefiero ser una verdadera pesadilla, que morir sin ser consciente, sí
Alguien como yo puede ser una verdadera pesadilla, completamente consciente
Pero me alegra ser una verdadera pesadilla, así que guárdate tus oraciones

[Chorus]

[Post-Chorus]
