Lonely In Your Nightmare Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Maelstrom1970 

Cover art for Lonely In Your Nightmare lyrics by Duran Duran

This song is about someone looking at a friend or family member who doesn’t trust anyone. That lack of trust has become a prison (you built your refuge turns you captive all the same) to for this person and the prison is a nightmare of loneliness. The onlooker sees the prison of loneliness and is wanting to join this person in their nightmare to help them escape their prison (I’ll be your homing angel).

I know, because I was lonely in my nightmare for 40 years of my life. Thankfully God was my homing angel.
