You were afraid of the dark, Afraid of what it might bring What bogey man may appear From the shadows, or perhaps A spider creep across your bed And enter your long hair or Enter your over tired head. Black Dog came upon you In later years, brought a new Deeper darkness, a quick sand Type of darkness and drag you down to a kind of terrible hell. Cheer up, your mother said, Cheer up my child, my sweet girl.
