i wake up with a shout, my hair a mess
bloodshot eyes stare at a face i couldn't care less
i switch off the tv as a show is about to begin
guess i'm all alone in this black hole again
i toss my blanket aside and get dressed and walk
not noticing blue eyes staring at me like a hawk
the creature stands tall and still as i hold my breath
with a shadow of a man who had nothing left.
