It no longer brings me comfort  
I no longer feel it's warmth
It instead infects my mind
And darkens all my thoughts

I fight it's every calling
I deny it's every sign
For when the darkness takes me
The demons take my mind

They laugh at all my dreams
They show me all my fears
And never do they leave me
Until I'm brought to tears

It used to be my solace
My one true place of peace
But now it is my weakness
That makes me fear to sleep

The warmth has disappeared
And cold runs down my spine
I hear the voices calling
As they enter one more time

I pray for strength and armour
For a chance to sleep right through
Cause empty nights are rare to me
And the visions never new

I delay as long as possible
Denying what will come
And as my eyelids begin to drop
I brace for the war of one

I know I should not fear it
It cannot bring me harm
But every night it tears at me
Until I come undone

Why Lord do I see this
Why would you allow
For these things to enter me
And haunt me with such power?  

Can I not have peace once more
Can I not have sleep
Can I please feel it's warmth
And find solace in the deep
