Afraid of the dark

Don't leave me here alone
please, don't shut off the lights.
I'm afraid that i wont make it
through the darkness of the night
the moon isn't out tonight ,
clouds are blocking off the stars
i cant reach to get the door it seems to stretch out much too far,.
the beat of raindrops on the glass
banging on my window pane.
there mocking me and laughing
the sound..its driving me insane
voices...echoed voices
whispering in my ear.
thoughts that i cant push away
i feel so afraid in there
shadows move from in the darkness
creeping slowly from the wall those lifeless creatures come to life,
on the floor they can drag and crawl
the wind howling loud through my calling spirits of the dead
like a childhood story..i hear "it"my bed crawling from under my bed
even in the still of the night i can hear silence start to shriek
demons of the dark night
haunt me and invade my sleep
i shout; trying to stand the silence
trembling...hiding under the covers
fearful tears run from my eyes
like a child crying for its mother
god, please make this all go away
don't abandon this frightened heart.
why mush my imagination betray me...
and make me so afraid of the dark
