Nightmare Lyrics
Just sleep
Just dream
Just sleep
Just dream
Just sleep
Just dream
In the back of my mind
I've been trying to chase a monster this whole time
But I couldn't see
The monster was me
And no one heard our cries
Now I've run out of tears
The time has come for me to disappear
Get me out of this mess
And away from this stress
Set me free so I can rest
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
And soon we'll be set free
And I've been crying out for help
I know I bite but I mean well
Can you see my disguise
I'm different inside
Can you break this spell
And all the ghosts from before
They're knocking and they're breaking down your door
So please set us free
Now you have the key
Because I can't take the pain no more
No more
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
Just dream
Just sleep
Just dream
Just dream
I've been trying to chase a monster this whole time
But I couldn't see
The monster was me
And no one heard our cries
The time has come for me to disappear
Get me out of this mess
And away from this stress
Set me free so I can rest
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
And soon we'll be set free
I know I bite but I mean well
Can you see my disguise
I'm different inside
Can you break this spell
They're knocking and they're breaking down your door
So please set us free
Now you have the key
Because I can't take the pain no more
No more
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep

This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free

It seems a bit obvious that the song is told from the perspective of one of the kids who was killed inside of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza who's soul made it's way into one of the suits. They think it's all a bad dream and that they'll wake up and everything will be alright.
@LordJaeger6277 Incorrect. The song is about a childhood story of a child. Its not based on the pizzaria incident in FNAF. even though it is a song for the game. It was actually a song based on Nates abusive life as a child. He thinks his life is a dream and that theres only one way out. And that once he takes that route that he will be set free. But he never did. And now hes trapped in this eternal Nightmare. But somehow he found his way to set himself free through his music.
