They crowl out from the dark

They crowl out from the dark
permeate through my door
float in the hallway
slowly blend into the walls

in the shadow of my grief
I can hear whispered sounds
feel a cold breath on my skin
here they come
to assert their rights

the fear is what I need, what I need to believe
the fear is what I need, what I need to feel

and so i dragged myself
int this gutter of mine
where shades of prey
feed on my soul

I crave to commit my words
to the book of stifled cries
I fell down so long ago
I don't remember now

the fear is what I need, what I need to believe
the fear is what I need, what I need to feel

and so i dragged myself
int this gutter of mine
where shades of prey
feed on my soul
