the shadows are not as they seem
they promise fame,
they offer money,
but give nothing at all.
and the dreams
oh, you'll never be rid of the dreams
they will haunt you
like the shadows from which you try to hide
twisting your reality into a nightmare
full of horrible screams
in the darkness they wait
blending and mixing
so you cannot see that they are there
waiting for you to let your guard down
your flesh and spirit they will tear
so i tell you, shadows are security
as long as you don't believe their lies
or fall victim to there sanity shattering cries
if you cannot handle this
tthen take this to thought
never get lost in the dark
you will lose your way
and then you are theirs
stay out of the desolate corners
and the wide open and empty spaces
and away from the paper blank faces
what happens to you there
is beyond all repair. |
