I wake up in the dark...

All the stillness, a pinch of slyness
the darkness creeps in.
I think about closing my eyes
before the moonlight seeps in

The curtains are drawn
the lights are off
I stare into nothingness
with my guard off

I don't blink, I don't cry
See images of my life flashin'
something seems to slip away
while I'm shouting and lashing

I feel the rush, I feel the pace
confusion sweeps my mind
is there anywhere
I can stay safe

I'm running from my shadow
somethings that's my own
I dunno where I'm going
Am I all alone?
