Face my despair

In the dead of night When the shadows loom My heart beats fast Like a ticking boom I hear the whispers Of the unseen And I know I'm not alone in this dream Darkness surrounds me I cannot escape The fear and dread That my mind creates I'm lost in a world Where hope is rare And the only way out Is to face my despair The moon is full Casting an eerie light As I walk alone Through the cold dark night My footsteps echo Like a haunting tune And I can feel The madness consume Darkness surrounds me I cannot escape The fear and dread That my mind creates I'm lost in a world Where hope is rare And the only way out Is to face my despair I try to run But my legs give way I try to scream But my voice won't obey I'm trapped in a nightmare That never ends And I know That I cannot pretend Darkness surrounds me I cannot escape The fear and dread That my mind creates I'm lost in a world Where hope is rare And the only way out Is to face my despair
