Like a shadow in the mist

He lurks through my mind

I toss

And turn

In a terror of no other kind


He pierces my soul

With his dead stare

Watching

Waiting

For me to face him, for me to dare


Standing still as a corpse

Pale as never seen before

Faceless

Weightless

I sight no one could ignore


And as I turn to face him

My sight, it blurs and fades

For no one

Not a soul

Should ever meet his gaze


I awaken from my slumber

Sweating and shaking as never before

And I cannot forget

Not even stop seeing

That character, forever more
