- - - RELIVING THIS NIGHTMARE - - -
Where did the ages go?
The moment I lost control
That fateful day in the dark
Was a cold stake in my heart
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
The panic within persists
I know I cannot resist
The devil cannot atone
For the monster you left alone
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
The time has faded without you here
I’m lost within grips of despair
It’s the damage done I can’t repair
The only thing left is the fear
I am empty without you here
I am only reliving this nightmare
The darkness never recedes
I’m trembling on my knees
Tears pour like a thunderstorm
Surrounding me like a swarm
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
I’ve become the monster
Inside the darkness
An abysmal creature
Driven to madness
I am the stranger
With words of venom
I’ve become the Hades
In company of demons
The mirror rejects me
For selfish reasons
Just what is inside
These perfect incisions?
Let my shadow inside
Your heart tonight
The silent attack
Screaming in the night
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
The time has faded without you here
I’m lost within grips of despair
It’s the damage done I can’t repair
The only thing left is the fear
I am empty without you here
I am only reliving this nightmare
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
...letting the shadow inside grow...
I’ve become the monster
Inside the darkness
An abysmal creature
Driven to madness
I am the stranger
With words of venom
I’ve become the Hades
In company of demons
...take a look through these eyes...

In a lot of ways this write is fascinating and terrifying and despairing. You do a great job of expressing that. Part of what's so interesting is how you use those repeated words to grow the beast, the terror, and the despair. Great job.
