Echoes in the Darkness

By megaprime81

An abysmal terror creeps over me
Every time i'm in my house
Who's watching me?
Is it a who?
Or a what?

Words echo on for ages
With no definite form
Chaos embedded in shadows
Seeking to quell my soul

Nocturnal thoughts
Of frightening scenes
Once the brightness was growing
Now so's the darkness, it seems

Awakening with night tremors
Where'd all my alcohol go?
Dreams contained in a bottle
Nightmares all in a row

As i cry out for solace,
Evaportating in truth
The lies become paramount
To the demise of our youth

Why does it echo so (echo so)
As i reason with all that i know (I know)
as i ponder if you're real (you're real)

echo so i know you're real....
