Once Again

by Bill Turner   Dec 28, 2005


Black is the night creeping eternal
Smothering all in its vise like grip
Pushing the light far away from its reach
Allowing the creatures to prowl the ground
Searching and killing everyone around

Darkness hides it all deep within
Until the last of the light is extinguished
Once all the protection is gone
Out come the demons and the pain
Nasty thoughts creeping into the brain

Torment lasts until the light of day
Then we smile and start anew
Dreading the onslaught of the night
Then the pain and heartache creeps in
Tormenting you all night once again
