"Don't look into it..." Streetlights sink beneath the rain, Every shadow calls my name. Every nightmare holds its breath, Waiting for twilights death. City sleeping... Eyes awake... My fragile mind... Starts to break. The deeper I breathe... The darker it gets... When the daylight disappears... Something whispers in my ears... Not a voice... Not a sound... Just the weight... Pulling down. Every corner... Twists again. Every night... Looks the same. Moonlight bleeding through the glass, As the minutes slowly pass. Every dream hides a face, Gone before I see the shape. Empty alley... Open door... I don't know... What's real anymore. The longer I stay... The harder it is to leave... When the daylight disappears... Something whispers in my ears... Not a voice... Not a sound... Just the weight... Pulling down. Every moment... I skip a beat. Every shiver... I pull the sheet. The night... Never chased me... It simply waited... Until I stopped running. Close your eyes. Count to ten. Open them. Start again. It was never... Out there... It was always... In here. When the daylight disappears... I can finally see it clear... No more running... Nowhere to hide... The darkest place... Is behind my eyes. Every sunrise... Burns with pain... And every evening... Calls again. It followed me... Because... I brought it home.
