This nightmare in which I hide,
Is taking control one day at a time.
The clock is ticking away.
Down are counting my days.

The air is running thin.
And the colours are beginning to blend.
The light is starting to fade. 
Oh please don't let me end this way!

My mind is running rampant,
And the heat is slowly dissipating. 
My flesh is turning to mush;
My life has begun to flash.

I can hear them slowly coming.
They're creeping closer and closer.
Their breath is at my neck.
I can hear their poisonous whispers.

They're words like acid, 
My hearing and sanity melting away.
Oh God please save me, 
Or have you abandoned me?

They say to trust in God,
But how do we trust in something so unreal?
It's almost as if it wants us killed.
Shh! They're here and I don't want them to find me.

This cold empty house is filling up
With demons from below.
I can feel my skin crawl
As their slimy fingers trail over me.

I can't take much more,
And it's only a showdown on the floor.
What will happen when the real thing comes?
What will happen when they decide that they need to eat?
