(Verse 1 – Whispered, hauntingly soft)
I wake, but I’m not awake,
The walls are breathing, the air feels fake.
Something stirs beyond my sight,
A shape that moves without the light.
(Pre-Chorus – Building tension, dissonant sounds creeping in)
Weight on my chest, cold hands creep,
It leans in close, it hears me breathe.
I try to scream, I try to run,
But my body stays—I’m coming undone.
(Chorus – Explodes into raw fear, chaotic and desperate)
Eyes wide, body still,
Something’s waiting, something’s real.
It grins, it crawls, it takes its time,
Whispers drag across my mind.
Eyes wide, body still,
Nightmare hands bend to their will.
I’m awake, but I can’t break free—
Oh God, it’s reaching out for me!
(Verse 2 – Slow, sinister, distortion-heavy)
It watches, it waits, it knows my name,
It twists the dark into its game.
A thousand voices in my ear,
Soft as silk, but laced with fear.
(Pre-Chorus – Even more frantic, breathing fast, heart pounding feel)
Weight on my chest, cold hands creep,
It leans in close, it hears me breathe.
I try to scream, I try to run,
But my body stays—I’m coming undone.
(Chorus – Intensely aggressive, layered vocals, distortion swelling)
Eyes wide, body still,
Something’s waiting, something’s real.
It grins, it crawls, it takes its time,
Whispers drag across my mind.
Eyes wide, body still,
Nightmare hands bend to their will.
I’m awake, but I can’t break free—
Oh God, it’s reaching out for me!
(Bridge – Full-on horror, slowed-down whispers, eerie soundscapes, distorted whispers overlapping)
It won’t let go, it won’t let go,
I feel its breath, it’s in my bones.
A waking tomb, a hollow shell,
A prison forged inside myself.
(Outro – Fading into surreal dread, ghostly vocals, heavy reverb)
Fading now, the dark recedes,
But I know it waits for me.
Tonight, again, I’ll meet its will,
Eyes wide… body still.
