Shadows of the Mind

Shadows dance in the mind's obscure light

Whispered fears in the silent night

Walking through the fog of a restless sleep

Visions dark, promises we can't keep

Echoes of a dream that’s slipping away

Haunted by shadows, nightmare's stay

Fighting through the dark, I try to break free

Lost in a maze of what I cannot see

Dreams of nightmares, tangled in my head

Fears like thunder, echoing in my bed

Run, run, escape the chilling breeze

Caught in the nightmare’s cold freeze

Eyes wide open in the abyss of night

Seeking salvation, searching for the light

Faces appear in a ghostly parade

Haunting the silence, relentless shade

Battling fears from shadows that creep

Inside the nightmare, where secrets keep

Dreams of nightmares, tangled in my head

Fears like thunder, echoing in my bed

Run, run, escape the chilling breeze

Caught in the nightmare’s cold freeze

Wake me from this dreadful dream

Break the spell, let hope gleam

Through the darkness, find my way

Sleep’s sweet promise not to betray

Shadows fade as dawn’s light creeps in

Nightmares retreat, peace begins

Till the next dark, whispering call

Dreams of nightmares, haunting all
