Darkness
I feel the darkness engulf me
And I wonder if I’m gonna die
The air around me is becoming no more
As I lay on the dirty floor boards
I feel the darkness engulf me
As my life flashes before my eyes
I feel this urge to get up and run
But there’s something holding me back like the sun
I feel the darkness engulf me
As I fall farther and farther into the clutches of death
I feel a cold hand surround my neck
And all I can think about is Death
I feel the darkness engulf me
While I’m being slapped around by a huge shadow
I feel the earth brake beneath me
And I scream out before I fall and hit my knee
I feel the darkness engulf me
And I wonder if I’m gonna die
I feel a cold hand surround my neck
As my life flashes before my eyes
