Nightmare Waltz

I wrote this during winter so it's a little out of date but yeah...

The chilling winter night
Leaving me frozen in fright
Invisible voices all around
I try to block out the wretched sound
Ghosts and phantoms are out
I have no idea why their roaming about
I try not to notice
They make me lose focus
Lying cold in the snow
Wishing that they would just go
I colse my eyes
Not letting myself be hypnotized
Their elegant dance 
Soon puts me in a trance
Begging me to join in
It's as tempting as sin
We dance and twirl
Watching the world swirl
Wondering if I am just dreaming
Having a nightmare with no meaning
Wanting to leave this chilling winter night
That has left me frozen in fright
