sanctum

 
in the dark unknown
nobody knows what goes on
we look away, we whisper secrets
we hear the screaming, we turn on the lights
to silence everything

the darkness understands your fears
it casts the shadows and makes your nightmare appear
there's always something lurking in our minds
that has us seeking others in the night

I listen intently to what it has to say
then I vanquish the evil away
it will not trespass on my soul
it has no claim on me it has to go

I walk the dark with confidence
it senses and feeds off fear
I command my demons to get in line
in formation do as your bid

they form a perimeter
and heighten my instincts
I break the spell of terror
entering into calm
after all I'm the one that's scary
