Nyctophobic
They come for me every night
Every time I close my eyes
Ixtab, take me in your arms
And grant me shelter from the dark
The creatures crawling in between my eyelids
The horror chewing through my heart
Too long, I've suffered in my slumber
Fearing that I never would awake
I'll hang the rope from the rafters
My life is only mine to take
I've been waiting for this every night
This is the last time I will ever close my eyes
I'll never sleep again
I'll never dream again
