I close my eyes each night and dream
The nightmares always haunting me
The dreams that never seem to end
My heart they twist, they tear, they rend,
Escape I can't, for in my sleep
I scream, I beg, I plead, I weep.
The darkness creeping close to me
It blinds me so I cannot see.
My trust is dead, my faith is gone
Yet somehow I still carry on.
But if there comes a time to choose
I'll pick the darkness over you.
