Life scares me
Dark reflections on the wall
Horrible sounds down the hall
Hungry dogs breaking chains
Many ghosts in the cloud
Life scares me a lot
Tough thugs in a fight
Having me all 'lone at night
Dreams experienced some snakes
Reality inherited it snares.
In dark I see some walk past
Dressed in black and light-ash
Life infact is my phobia
I've placed an heir to my mares
I've blown an air to my mess
I've bought a suit for my fright
So my foot be heard in the night
I need to live, not be lived.
