  • Caught in the darkness
    The room is getting colder my body is on hold
    Lying in bed and unable to move

    The darkness in 24
    Former guests who live no more
    So many hands to hold you down

    My mind is awake
    I open my eyes but it's so hard to breathe
    Something is in here to silence my screams

    The darkness in 24
    Steal your breath away once more
    Oh it's happening again yeah

    See the old hag sitting over me
    The smell of rotten breath and blasphemy
    No way out only darkness here
    Feel my eyes filling up with fear
    Will someone hear me crying out for help in room 24
    In room 24, in room 24

    Caught in the darkness
    The room is getting colder my body is on hold
    Lying in bed and unable to move

    Sadness is falling tear
    Turning into liquid fear
    Who killed who we'll never know
    Oh we'll never know
    Never tell, never tell, never tell, never tell

    See the old hag sitting over me
    The smell of rotten breath and blasphemy
    No way out only darkness here
    Feel my eyes filling up with fear
    Will someone hear me crying out for help in room 24
    In room 24, in room 24 Writer/s: MICHAEL POULSEN

  • Cherie from Usa. OhioI knew this was a sleep paralysis dream. I have them often. They don’t freak me out as much as they used to. Sometimes I gotta wonder if there isn’t something more to this though.
