Through the pitch black darkness,
Through the endless night
They're waiting in the jungle
They're waiting for your life.
Their eyes are watching your every move,
They penetrate your skin
Their ears are listening for your footsteps
They know you cannot win
These creatures know your thoughts,
They know your deep desires.
Your dreams, your life, your promises,
Will all go unfulfilled.
They know they can consume you,
Control your thoughts and words.
They know they have the power,
Control over your whole world.
Your dreams they will destroy,
Your friendships they will ruin,
Values, beliefs and personality,
Will not exist for you.
You're trapped inside a cave,
And on the cold, hard wall,
You scratch how many days,
Till they come to bring you home.
Days seem short,
But the nights are endless.
Your mind is twisted into pulp,
And you're so distant from where you began.
Now you have just one wish,
That you were never there,
Never at that party,
Where you had your first sip.
