Shadow Faces/Nightmare Men

Shadow faces

Nightmare men

Felt and heard but never seen

Creaking door and sighing wind

Icy breaths upon her neck

Wake in terror

There they are

Shadow faces

Nightmare men

Turn and turn and catch a glimpse

White and black and bloody red

Colors of her nightmare realm

Run in terror 

Hear them shriek

Shadow faces

Nightmare men

Fingers winding through her hair

Lips are brushing down her neck

Wraiths are toying with your soul

Silent screaming 

Never heard

Shadow faces

Nightmare men

Rising daybreak, here it comes

Burn away these shadow men

Hope at last arrives this day

Waking hour

Banish them

Shadow faces 

Nightmare men

But with day comes no reprieve

For they're whispers in her mind

Gloating echoes back and forth

They're always there

Deep inside

Shadow faces

Nightmare men
