Soul Crushing Numbness
Horror things aren't scary anymore
Neither deformed faces nor the creepy lore
Doesn't startle me the way they used to
Doesn't make the stomach beg for a loo
I guess this is what numbness feels like
the ghost inside and out seems alike
The inner demons carry more suspense
When they come and give a nasty glance
Their babble makes impeccable sense
Does fake eerie music stand a chance?
The rapid breathing, the pale face
No longer have any grace
Darkness looks so captivating
It always manages to keep me waiting
Every day I wait for intense nightmares
Desperate to feel emotions, all its layers
