Story behind the song
Well, this song is kind of about nightmares. Nightmares have always been a problem with me, so I wrote a song about a guy having a REALLY bad nightmare. My nightmares were worse though...
Lyrics
Verse 1
Staring down the beaten path,
Wondering what’s been said,
Wondering who has crossed your trail,
Wondering who is dead,
Evil thoughts will crowd your mind,
Try to push them out,
Lock your thoughts safe in your mind,
Find your horse and mount,
Ride on through the blackened night,
Dying all the way,
Once you wondered who faced death,
Here their bodies lay,
Chorus
Fear becomes employed,
Enter the gaping void,
Sanity destroyed,
Enter the gaping void,
Enter the gaping void,
Enter the gaping void,
Enter the gaping void,
Enter the gaping void,
Verse 2
Frightened now you try to run,
From the horrid site,
Stumbling now upon your feet,
Hoping you’re all right,
False hope gives you time to think,
How this came about,
The thoughts inside being to chew,
Your body screams and shouts,
Tearing out malignity,
Breaking at the seam,
Then you wake to find that all,
Was just a silly dream,
Chorus
Fear becomes employed,
Enter the gaping void,
Sanity destroyed,
Enter the gaping void,
Enter the gaping void,
Enter the gaping void,
Enter the gaping void,
Enter the gaping void,
