When night draws in,
I know it's time to retreat into my asylum
Carried away by distant voices
My weakened grip has all but surrendered
And then I feel you standing there, as I'm trapped here on my own
Your presence starts to drain the life right out of my soul
(Chorus)
Standing in line to be a prisoner locked inside of my mind
Holding me down, no I'm never prepared
Not ready to die
I'm paralyzed by the notion of hell as I open my eyes
Welcome to the dreams that I have
Shrouded in shadows, you begin to take form
A toxic vision cloaked in terror
Waiting in silence with sinister intentions...
To mask my voiceless screams
And then I feel you breathing near, as you move towards my side
Imprisoned by the weight of evil on my soul
