The Haunting

I can't count the days I've roamed
A stray ghost liked to wither on the vine
A paling tale of days long gone
I won't be until you close your eyes

Sleep tight, someone's always by your side

A thousand nights we've been calling your name
Close your eyes but I won't go away
We're there for you
The cold embrace that you don't wanna feel
Must not be... but you know it is real!
We're there for you

Don't you waste your time and try
To understand this figment of the lie
Don't breathe a word to anyone
By the time you'll phrase me I'll be gone

Sweet dreams, see you in the twilight zone

A thousand nights we've been calling your name
Close your eyes but I won't go away
We're there for you
The cold embrace that you don't wanna feel
Must not be... but you know it is real
We're there for you

God I must contain the wayward fantasy
And where did all those wicked dreams come from
Pictures in the dark
they seem so eerily real tonight
I pray my mind is wrong

I'm the spark they refuse to conceive
A thousand nights we've been calling your name
Close your eyes but I won't go away
We're there for you
The cold embrace that you don't wanna feel
Must not be... but you know it is real
We're there for you
