Haunted

Oh, I lay so quiet,pretending to be fast asleep
I pray I don't hear
the dreadful sound
of your sneaking,shuffling feet

Tightly I clench my blankets
up around my neck
oh maybe,just maybe
you'll feel guilty for just a sec

My face is burried deep inside
my pillow of tears
if you only knew Dad,
what your daughter fears

Shhhhhhh... I hear the sound of feet
Oh God PLEASE
make him go away
so I can sleep

I see a shadow..stout
and creeping outside my door
I start to tremble
as I hear creeking from the floor

No voice,no sound
just a cold, sickening caress
what thoughts, what visions
I now posess

Don't touch me, don't be here
just go away
my body trembles and I whimper
but you stay I fear

When will it be over???
I feel sick inside
you meander away
with all YOUR pride

Nothing seems to phase you
you feel no remorse
you just play your games
following your past course

As for me ,You've stained me
ruined me inside
As you leave me lifeless
you take with you my pride

Oh...God only knows
how you've hurt me, filled me with fear
Scared to death
I'll awake to find you here

I sleep with caution
I'm alert to every sound
for I never know
when the night creeper will be back around
