Cold Nights

You hide in the shadows of my dreams
Cold and silent, watching me
Every night I see you lurk and stare
Surrounded, yet when I cry there's no one there

I feel you pulling and must give in
For I have no choice and can never win
My battle with you must have an end near
For no one should spend every night in fear

Too late it is for these words when you take me
Into one of you I fear you will make me
You take with you a hand once mine
And there I'll stay, unchanged by time
