Night Plague

Let it out, it’s destroying you Like a plague running its course Thickening with every turn Blinding tearing you apart Day turns to night with the notion Everything’s going to be alright While the shadow it creeps Growing darker with greed Seeking a soul to perch inside Controlling craze infuriate Deafening with silence Numbing the brain Needles gone shakes have come Yearning for one more night of love Pack of smokes burning eyes They are your true friend No lies I hide from you Unknown hurt that you feel Sickness growing in your veins Wishing relief would come your way
