Under my blanket I screamed, but voiceless
Chasing by darkness, I see nothing
I feel cold, killin’ me to the bones
Thorns on my feet gives unexplained pain
I am running for my life, but couldn’t move
The monster under my bed started to wake up
It keeps calling me, whispering my name
My bare hands choking me to death
Trying to get up, but my soul in chains
I am breathless and helpless
Wide awake inside the freezin’ cellar
Locked with the worst memories of the past
Crying without tears, full of fears
The smell of fresh blood running through my veins
I am deeply hurt inside
Lying alone in the dark cold forest, I see myself
Not a reflection, but the real me
Tryin’ to reach and hold my hands, but I couldn’t
There’s a shadow wandering around
I am terrified to death
Sometimes I woke up flying
Galloping from hills to mountains
Chasing my freedom on the crescent moon
As I’m getting near and an inch closer
I free fall in the middle of the air
I am trapped in my own nightmares
Overwhelmed with endless thoughts
Pulling me deep within the world of darkness
Unable to wake up, I am shaking
And now I’m scared to close my eyes again.
