The Phantom:
I remember the uncommon silence,
In the way that he stared.
The fear envoloping my body,
He told me he cared.
I remember the pain,
While he brought me to Hell..
I remember the tears,
While my whole world just fell.
His touch was acidic,
And his tongue was a razor..
I asked for some help..
But none were my savior.
Turn the blind eye,
Maybe you should obey..
I couldn't give in..
Not if I wanted to see another day..
I tried to fight back,
Screams filled the room.
The phantom laughed at me,
My demise would be soon.
His eyes were my death,
But his death was my high.
I stare at his grave,
Never again I will cry.
Luck has it's fate,
But the phantom's still there..
I see him in sleep,
I see him.. everywhere.
