Dellusional and scared, I'm running from shadows that aren't there, I can't scream in this haunted house anymore, Walls are collapsing in on my lungs, Ghosts have sewn my mouth shut, Cobwebs have come alive and they're taking my arms, Pulling, pulling, Tearing me apart, Insomnia begins to sing as it tries to claim victory, It has not won yet, I have not lost, My limbs begin to bleed out as the clock tears at my skin, I'm sinking into the floorboards, I'm sinking in, Chuckling ghouls emerge from antique cupboards, They dance, and the webs make me spin, I think I'm gonna be sick.
