Halsey - Nightmare (Reprise) (Lyric Video)

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

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

"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

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

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

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

"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

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

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

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

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

What a masterpiece. Every time she does a new version of this song, it feels like I'm going back in time and listening to it for the first time. Pure satisfaction. Love Halsey singing rock.

[Srncr]

This version sounds like pure POWER. As someone who has felt so weak for so long, this song has transformed me and I can’t stop crying listening to this version❤️ Thank you, We Love you Ash😭

[mauricioberlanga]

you can really get the NIN feeling in this song

[chazzzboi]

We defo need more songs like forget me too, 11 minutes and nightmare, Halsey’s voice was made for this

[lamb]

One of my my favorite Halsey songs! This reprise by Trent and Atticus truly rocks.

[chayo]

Unpopular opinion: this version of the song is better than the original.

[siobhanveronica]

When the owl turned around and stared into my soul LMAO. That scared the life outta me. I love this version, it's even more intense :)

[ldy]

When this song came out it was one of the best days in that year

[cheesecakelasagna]

Are Trent and Atticus the ones that did the rework of the production?

[victuristamx]

Great version. Her voice sounds great in rock

[MokyKun]

I can't believe she managed to make it even better than the original. I've got this one stuck on repeat !

[xBlackWolfBlueEyesx]

I can see this version being played at the end of a movie where there's a big revelation, a huge reveal that the audience didn't see coming, and it works in the main characters favor. As they're walking away, down a busy street with select people (who have been viewed in the movie before as plot points) catching glimpses of the main character, the first part of this song starts, and just as we get a view of the main character giving a slight cunning smile, it cuts to the credits as the chorus hits. I can see it clearly

Edit: listening again, it would have the beginning in it but it goes straight to "I've tasted blood and it is sweet", it doesn't have her first chorus verse until the credits

[JayLady]

I can’t be the only person who prefers the original over this. Like this is nice but the original Nightmare was PERFECT.

[sarinadolati]

I love you and your voice❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[shubhakapoor]

Why is everything About this Lady so attractive? Ahhhh i love her. She makes me appreciate her even more everytime I see her

[loverpixel]

both versions of this song are incredible because it's signed by Halsey

[remzzz]

seeing this masterpiece on this album is such a relief for me. imagine this song as a stand-alone single for 2 years because it's not fit on the last album and then this album came

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

I want gasoline (live - re-imagined) as a video. It came with my white iichliwp record, and it's beautiful ❤️
