Brand New - I Am a Nightmare
[Verse 1]
Turn tin to gold
I want pure energy
Throw everything I own into the fire
I want to find a way
I want to throw up snakes
Do I have to die to see the other side?
[Chorus]
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
Coming out of the ground, it's kind of freaking me out
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
Coming out of the ground, it's kind of freaking me out
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
[Verse 2]
So come shake your Zen out
And give me pure energy
My heart is glowing flourescent, I want you to possess it
I’m not a prophecy come true
I’ve just been goddamn mean to you
So what is this thing laced with
Please don’t replace me
I surrender, embrace me
Whatever I'm faced with
[Chorus]
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
Coming out of the ground, it's kind of freaking me out
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
Coming out of the ground, it's kind of freaking me out
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
[Bridge]
Blessed be the lost at sea
The rest in peace was what they conceive in
No, I am messed up, no distress
I fall asleep holding your hand
Among alien dunes, you are a pale vision of blue
And I’m a second sail, a saved thief
So, go save someone else
[Chorus]
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
Coming out of the ground, it's kind of freaking me out
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
Coming out of the ground, it's kind of freaking me out
I am a nightmare and you are a miracle
Produced by longtime collaborator Mike Sapone, “I Am a Nightmare” is the first new song from the Long Island emo institution since they shared “Mene” in April 2015. According to a press release, both songs will be on the follow-up to 2009’s Daisy, which could arrive within 2016. Back in January 2016, Jesse Lacey and the boys also officially released a 10-year-old collection of demos that infamously leaked before the band’s brilliant 2006 effort The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me. “I Am a Nightmare” is set to be released digitally on May 20th, 2016 and on 12″ vinyl.
