I cannot sleep alone again   For my fears are gaining   I hear a cry, it sounds so faint   But I know it won’t be long   With her voice something old   Echoes through the evening   And all is still beside my heart   And all that’s left is waiting      In the mist she sways   Forever pale, forever grey      My terror grows and I can’t see   Through the fog so thick outside   I lay so still with eyes held wide   Counting minutes ‘til the dawn    She peers inside, her laughter screams   As she scratches at the door   I lay so still with death in sight   As the rain begins to fall      In the mist she sways   Forever pale   Into the night she’s calling   Forever, forever grey      And the thunder roars like hell   Through the world tonight   The one who should not be   Is closing in   And the door now opens wide   Her footsteps can be heard   The one who should not live   Is just outside
