The darkness takes over as my door closes
A power I surrender to, as tears glisten in my eyes
The darkness overwhelms me
I yell for no one, who hears my silent cry
I go numb, paralyzed with fear
I don't know what to do
I can't move, I can only stare
It's there, sitting silently
Listening to me hyperventalating
Watching me intently
It knows I see it
It knows I'm scared
It knows I hear it
It knows I'm there
It's sitting in the darkness
Waiting for the next night
It's sitting in the darkness
Waiting for me to turn out the light
