about

I had this reoccurring episode of sleep paralysis:

I would feel something standing in the depths of my closet as I slept, but of course I could never turn my head to see it. As I slowly began to realize that I was stuck, I would being to have a short panic attack. But then I would start to hear incoherent whispering coming from the darkness of my closet. Maliciously it got louder and louder in both of my ears, until I sharply sprang out of my stuck position, in sweat and fear.

I hate it. I wrote about it. It went away-ish..

lyrics

I was just hanging by a thread.
You heard me screaming out that night across the bed.
I can feel them coming at me now.
They're speaking bad things about me now.
These things they haunt me like a ghost.
And monsters that don't ever want to let me go.
I need you with me now.
I feel them coming out.
Bad things are coming out my closet.
And I can't seem to make them go away now.
Bad things are creeping at my spirit.
And I can't seem to make them go away now.
I feel them pulling out my teeth.
And they're making sure that I could never speak.
And I can't seem to settle down.
You're picking me back off the ground.
Bad things are coming out my closet.
And I can't seem to make them go away now.
Bad things are creeping at my spirit.
And I can't seem to make them go away.
Darling could you make them go away now.
