Shadow's Everywhere (The Strange Events of Curdlequik Falls) the Musical
[JULIA MEYERS]:
I crawl into my graveyard. I stand by freezing walls.
I try to trust my instincts, As I attempt to enter ghastly halls.
I see a face, it looks at me, and say to me “Im here”
I look away, then run away, but tell myself not to fear.
There are shadows on every window
Ghosts in every door
I cant trust where I am standing
But of myself, am I sure?
I look for signs of heaven
But only find signs of hell
I look into the mirror
And the past is hell as well
I know why I must die now.
I know why I must fade.
I must save my loving soul
From the devil’s deathly toll.
I know he’s getting closer
I can feel it in the air
God cast down your almighty hand
Because there are shadows everywhere.
I feel the pain.
I hear the rain.
I taste my death.
I gasp for breath.
My heart is beating.
My soul is heating.
My blood is boiling.
My lungs are swelling.
I walk into the graveyard
And sit in a gory chair.
And as I sit down, I look around.
And see those shadows everywhere.
