Its 4 am The windows are locked The doors are double locked The hinges have been checked Ive pulled the covers tight Tighter and tighter till I can't Breathe Shhhh, hush not a sound! And now I can't see? Hush, please! Where is it that they might be. The fear is choking the life from me. I'm awake I'm awake, in my bed In my bed I quake. Feel it shake! I scream to the windows. I scream to the walls. To one and all, I call But silence upon there ears fall. Can you not hear me? Can you not hear? From neath the marsh I call. Soaked with their pain. A permanent bloods stain. I call, I fall. I fall and I call I scream and I gleam But my eyes have lost their beam. I CALL I CALL
