Nightmares come, 
Swiftly galloping...
Into the night
Your mind's blackening...
   
Running through shadows
As twilight fades...
Feeding on woes
Where mist cascades...

All light is drowned
And there they lurk...
Waiting to pounce
From the unholy murk...

All your sweet dreams
Start to wane...
As silent screams
Echo with pain...

A storm of fears!
A storm of tears!
 
And they creep
Into your sleep...
Into darkness deep...
