When you close your eyes you realise

That you're safe from the world on the outside

But the worse fear of all is the darkness

That lurks not on the out, but the inside

You're sleeping, you're dreaming, you're screaming

It's creepy, it's deepening unbelieving

You're twisting, you're turning, you're bending

It's frightening and scaring, never ending

You're falling, you're calling and shouting

And trying to wake, no mistake

You're spinning, you're drifting, you're loosing

This battle to wake, you can't wait

You're locked in, you're blocked in, you're tied down

You're trying to escape, from mind rape

You're crawling, then walking, then running

From what's deep inside your own mind

You reach out for crying out

Won't someone drag me out

No one's there, no one cares

As you're pulled down much deeper, it's darker

Nothing is bright, eyelides shut tight

You're spinning around and then you fall down

And the sweat starts to pour

And it screams as it hits the ground

You fall off the edge and you jump up in bed

And the bottom draws near and you scream in fear

Don't be afraid

I'll always be there

To catch you when you fall

Close your eyes

You're sleeping, you're dreaming, you're screaming

It's creepy, it's deepening unbelieving

You're twisting, you're turning, you're bending

It's frightening and scaring, never ending

When you close your eyes you realise

That you're safe from the world on the outside

But the worse fear of all is the darkness

That lurks not on the out, but the inside
