Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In darkness, where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness, filled with all the sounds of fear
[Verse 2]
I hear voices (Don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows (Don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
[Verse 3]
And the clock stops
As darkness closes in
I hesitate but it's too late
I scream and scream again
I hear colors black and red
I see sounds that fill my head
I'll never read those books again
[Verse 4]
In darkness, where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness, filled with all the sounds of fear
I hear voices (Don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows (Don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
[Verse 5]
Don't turn out the light (Don't turn out the light)
Or I'll go over the edge
Don't turn out the light (Don't turn out the light)
Or I'll go over the edge
[Verse 6]
In darkness, where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness, filled with all the sounds of fear
I hear voices (Don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows (Don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
[Verse 7]
I hear voices (Don't turn out the light, don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows (Don't turn out the light, don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
