haunted

Is this really it?

Is this how my dream ends?

Dying, giving it's last breath over to fear

It withers away like a note kissed by a flame

Up into the air it soars

I truly hope it finds someone who deserves it

My life is not over, but my heart breaks at the thought of losing the rest of my days

Nightmares creep in, darkness surrounding me

Quick, light a candle before the creatures tear away my soul

Was that really a good idea?

Do I really want to see the horrors in the dim light?

or is it better to just sit in the never ending silent night?

They hide in the mirrors, the shadows, the night

Waiting the wretched things to tear us apart

They are the reason you look over your shoulder

They are the reason you run up the stairs

They are there when you first try to close your eyes

Waiting silently, watching you while you sleep

It is their sick ideas that leech into your mind

They play their sick games hoping to wake you with a fright

They haunt you every day, every night

around the corner, everywhere you can and can't possibly see

But these ghosts are there just for me

Are you afraid of the night?
