When Darkness Falls

When Darkness Falls

When darkness falls
I'll face the fright,
counting terrors
through the night.

Their shadows are
right there to see,
I watch them dance
in front of me.

I see them creep
and hear their calls,
as demons climb
these dungeon walls.

I cannot say
why they appear,
or why they stop
to bring me fear.

So now I wait
and hold my breath,
but still they come
and one is Death.

And I will go
into the light,
when darkness falls
and calls the night.
