And with each day the dusk does fall
Light giving in to the darkness' call
The shadows grow dark and long
In the night they stay heavy and strong.

The nightmare man creeps in lightless wake,
Your mind and soul is his to take.
Smoothed skin and faceless features,
He is above all other creatures.

Even with the rising of the sun,
Though you run and run and run.
This slender man in pressed black suit.
Will always be in effortless pursuit.
