The sound of silence ,
Burns through my ears
The chilling breeze ,
Creeps down to my spine
As I'm wide awake ,
Still , in the middle of the night.
The crickets are singing ,
It echoes through the place
The people are dead asleep ,
They are except for me.
Then a sudden gasp ,
And heart beating fast
My thoughts are messy ,
My body seemed paralyzed.
The darkness looms in my room
Though , the moon shines bright
The animal's howling ,
It gave me a fright
It's already 3:00 AM ,
The witching hour , they say
The atmosphere has changed ,
I sensed something eerie
I thought there's someone watching me ,
Or is it just my hallucination?
I'm breaking with cold sweats already ,
My voice won't let out
I gazed a silhouette ,
It's coming towards my bed.
I'm now terrified ,
I'm covered with my blanket
The more I fear it ,
The harder it is to sleep
So I tried to calmed down ,
Even for just a minute
A voice whispers me a lullaby ,
As my eyes are getting weary
My body slowly resigns ,
My eyes are losing consciousness
And the next thing I know ,
It's already sunrise as I wake!..
