Asia - Nyctophobia Lyrics
Don't blow the candle out, just leave it by my bedWith all these ghosts and visions, trolls inside my headJust when the wolf will howl, the dogs begin to barkThis is for real, I have a fear of the darkAnd as the endless nights will overturn the daysIntellectual logic seems to vanish in a hazeParanoia has the measure of meHallucinations now dictate realityI'm hearing voices now, I wish that I could seeI look around, I know there's no-one here but meThe mirror shimmers there's an angel here at lastAlways demons looking back, and laughing through the glassNyctophobia, fear of the darkI am confused, I really don't know what to thinkMaybe Mr. Allen does 'cause he's a Harley shrinkHe asks me how I feel, I mumble "just okay"He says "ok's not a feeling, Jack, we need to peel awayThe layers of your onion, your emotional diseaseBlow all these candles out, I want you on your knees"It's way too dark in here, it's silent as the graveIt's cold and clammy, like I'm sealed into a caveThere is no air in here, I'm drowning in my fearAnd if I close my eyes, the ground will disappearI have a chronic phobia, and up until this dayThere is no guarantee that it will go awayNyctophobia, fear of the dark
