Author's Note: Black Sabbath influence here, mainly the song I.
I am the dark that comes in your nightmares
I am the shadow that haunts in your dreams
I am the black that feasts on your screams
I am the gloom that covers all the world
Darkness comes in deathly silence
Gliding like a ghost over hallowed ground
I stand over you as you sleep without sound
Waiting, watching, waiting
You cannot outrun me
You cannot escape me
Waiting, watching, waiting
I move about freely in the night
And I vanish quickly into the light
When day comes even I flee
I am the noises that keep you awake
I am the voice that whispers lies
I am the black of sightless eyes
I am the echo of the night
