Darkness awakens
Shadows shroud my soul

Light is fading
Shaking, shivering, cold

Dreams infiltrate
Restless nights and lack of sleep abound

World's ending
Cities scorched and burning to the ground

I close my eyes and hide myself away
Content for now to suffer
The fear I know; The words I'll never say

I run and run, to where I do not know
Unsure of the path I'm taking
Unsure of what the future does not show

Raining fire
Everything I knew and loved is gone

Slowly dying
Are all the ones I've truly loved and known

Why am I still alive in all the flames
Why must I survive the torment
Of my mind's sickening games

Why am I the only one who's left
Why could the end
Not have stolen my final breath

Midnight, awoken
Vivid visions of our final days

Heart's pounding
Frightened of the end of our ways

I know not the reason for this torture
I know not why I cannot sleep
I know not the cause of my vision
I know not why it won't leave me be
Written about a recurring nightmare
