Darkness

Alone on a moonless night
You lie awake in silence
Death creeps into your sights
You've come to seek his guidance
His eyes see through you
Don't look away
The thoughts you turn to
Only you can say

It worms its way into your mind
The thought so black, it leaves you blind

The darkness, it calls
Your name from the hall
And when the darkness comes
Say your prayers, turn out the lights
The darkness, it crawls
Through the cracks in the walls
And when the darkness comes
Say your prayers, turn out the lights
Darkness comes for you tonight

Another sleepless night
Your heart pounds inside you
Death creeps into your room
He wants to sleep beside you
His eyes burn through you
But don't look away
The words he tells you
He's begging you to stay

It worms its way into your mind
The thought so black, it leaves you blind

The darkness, it calls
Your name from the hall
And when the darkness comes
Say your prayers, turn out the lights
The darkness, it crawls
Through the cracks in the walls
And when the darkness comes
Say your prayers, turn out the lights
Darkness comes for you tonight
Well, darkness comes for you tonight

Oh, sweet darkness
He's come around for you again
Oh, sweet darkness
He's come around for you again

The darkness, it calls
Your name from the hall
And when the darkness comes
Say your prayers, turn out the lights
The darkness, it crawls
Through the cracks in the walls
And when the darkness comes
Say your prayers, turn out the lights
Darkness comes for you tonight
Well, darkness comes for you tonight
