Fear In the Dark

I’ve been here before It’s not a new route Holding the steering wheel Clutch ready to boot I stare into the distance Barely reading the signs But I’ve been here before Are my eyes going blind? I continue my path And I trust my instincts But my brain knows I’d be better off Interpreting a sphinx I’m rushing tonight Because lives are at stake My work is important I can not be late The next road I travel Is darker than most My headlights are on Am I close to the coast? Smoothly and quickly My eyes now can see The scariest image I could ever believe I didn’t even feel The barricade break Just the knot in my chest As my heart started to ache There’s no turning back now I’m falling into the night And all I can think is I’m now turning off my light.
