I lay alone at night
Resting from this torturous day
I fall to blackness
Never to get away
This evil haunts me
In my dreams it is real
It takes me away, to the deepest chasms
Of my brain
Suffocating
Dislocating my sense of self
My reality is lost and gone
I have no control
Darkness
The silent captor of my nights
Steals my moments, leaves my sights
Leaves me stranded in my mind
My sweet slumber turned asunder
Playing demons of the mind
My sweet slumber turned asunder
Playing demons of the mind
This crushing demon
It feeds from my soul
Feasting forever
Out of control
Until at last comes
The warmth of dawn
It ends my nightmare
Returns my soul
Suffocating
Dislocating my sense of self
My reality is lost and gone
I have no control
Darkness
The silent captor of my nights
Steals my moments, leaves my sights
Leaves me stranded in my mind
