dark matter

Shadows dancing on the drywall, don't look back Static on the screen, hear the floorboards crack Cold sweat dripping, yeah the reaper wears black Step into the dark, you ain't ever coming back Whispers in the hallway, static in your head One wrong move and you're waking up dead Got a pocket full of ghosts, got a soul made of lead Don't look down at the shadows by the bed Verse 1 Midnight creeping, heavy breathing on the phone Left the front door open, but you thought you were alone Footsteps ringing through the hollowed-out stone Now you're frozen in the corner like a statue in a zone Paranoia hitting like an 808 blast Every single second might be running out your last Got the trap house shaking from the demons in the past No escape from the net that the phantom just cast Verse 2 Fog on the glass, see a face in the reflection Wrong turn taken, check the navigation direction Lost in the woods with a broken connection Ain't no saving grace, ain't no divine intervention Sudden drop in the room, temperature freezes Flicker in the light, hear the rattle of diseases Walking through the graveyard, praying to Jesus But the dark in the corner does exactly what it pleases Verse 3 Blacked out windows, can’t see the moonlight Trapped inside a labyrinth, fighting for your life Shaking with the terror, sharp as a knife Cut the circulation, ending all the strife Heavy chains dragging down the basement floor Something's pushing hard on the bedroom door You can scream all you want, but they want it even more Unforgiving shadows coming back to settle scores Verse 4 Creeping through the alley where the streetlights die Red eyes glowing underneath a stormy sky Can't run fast when the gravity is high Every single breath feels like a final goodbye Phantoms in the smoke, see the silhouette rise Look into the void, see the malice in their eyes No more running out of time, no more clever disguise Just a cold, hard truth where the living creature dies Verse 5 Clock strikes midnight, batteries drain Echoes of a laugh driving inside your brain Pouring down hard like a toxic acid rain Nothing left to lose but the memory of pain Trap door opens to a bottomless pit Spiders in the corner where the old candles lit Scratching on the drywall, matches won't hit This is where the nightmare and the reality fit Verse 6 Cold wind blowing through a locked-up room Spirits in the corner weaving threads of your doom Buried underground where the black roses bloom Stuck inside the shadows of a ancient old tomb No signal on the phone, just a low-pitched hum Heartbeat racing like a war-zone drum Terror in your veins making all your fingers numb Waiting for the absolute worst thing to come Verse 7 Final candle flickers, now you’re left in the dark Left a bitter memory, a permanent mark Wolf at the gate, hear the vicious hound bark Stuck inside a thriller, but you missed the spark Closing up your eyes, but the vision stays clear Whispers in your ear feeding directly on your fear End of the road, yeah the finish line is near Nothing left to do but watch the shadow disappear
