Crazy In the Night

In a dark, dark room light cannot be found When demons overtake, anxieties unbound Black cat's silhouette far long upon the wall Stairs creak, loud and clear, further down the hall In a dark, dark room light cannot be found Reactive spirit, all alone, feeling every sound Winds moan throaty, heavy through fractured eaves Sinister pumpkins shimmering light, sit among the leaves In a dark, dark room light cannot be found Unsettled thoughts, on the bend go 'round and 'round Werewolves, Frankenstein, Dracula how they make us shudder Hearts skip many beats escalating to a flutter In a dark, dark room light cannot be found Anticipation, deep and dark, envelops and surrounds Pinhead, Jason, Freddy - fill our mind with fright Needless fodder for a nervous mind on Halloween night
