Silent Shadows

Silent shadows haunt the room With the chilling fear of impending doom The past is here to torment me again Those terrible memories from way back then One summer night I won’t forget With nothing left but lifelong regret This night is dark it’s lonely and cold Mindless thoughts of an empty soul The love I’ve lost has left me blind As despair tortures my decaying mind Cast into the bottomless pit If there’s a hell then this is it Wake me up from my worst nightmare Hold me, kiss me, tell me you care But there’s no one here in this empty room I’m alone I’m dead I’m in a tomb Silent screams that no one else hears As I lay drowning in a pool of tears Scared to death as fear rushes in Chills crawl like spiders across my skin A twisted shell cursed with pain This wretched life has driven me insane
