Only a shadow A flash of fangs in the dark Tremors down my spine Only a shadow Breath drawn like blood from my lungs Can’t be real… could it? Only a shadow Defenseless in eventide Paranoid; frozen Only a shadow A flick of dark in the night, Poisoning my mind Only a shadow For that is all it can be This I tell myself

Night Terrors
Only a shadow A flash of fangs in the dark Tremors down my spine Only a shadow Breath drawn like blood from my lungs Can’t be real… could it? Only a shadow Defenseless in eventide Paranoid; frozen Only a shadow A flick of dark in the night, Poisoning my mind Only a shadow For that is all it can be This I tell myself
