When even shadows fade I feel their presence near Haunting within my walls, stirring my worst fears I hear them whisper behind the door I lock it tight, I don't dare step outside anymore They wail to be set free They beg for my assistance Their voices follow me Every moment of my existence Horrific illusions call me A nightmare so terrific I feel it eating at my brain A hidden truth mysterious On me now takes its toll The screams of anguished spirits Lust for my very soul Horrific illusions call you A nightmare so specific It can't have been formed in my brain Their voices ever closer Now threaten to escape Spiritual torment looming Certain of impending fate Horrific illusions beckon A nightmare so morbific It must be planted in my brain Or am I insane? I feel my essence swallowed Body crushed, lifeblood spilled To a void alone and hollow At my own hand, by my own mind Killed
