“The beauty of song writing is creating a story or poem with emotive concepts; it could be elements of truth, exaggeration or completely fictional. ‘Nightmare’ is shining a light on the fact that perhaps my expectations in life could come across unrealistic at times, but on the other hand does that really make me a nightmare or just a strong-minded woman who knows what she wants. It's written in a playful relationship sense but questioning the construct of being deemed bossy or controlling rather than assertive or driven. I think it's something a few people might relate too, whether it be a personal, social or professional circumstance.” – Sloan Peterson on “Nightmare
