Shadows dark as darkness
Walked the night
Turning on, switching off the lights in the room
Paralysing the lone soul in the room
Scattering shockwaves capable of grounding an elephant

Voices hell as hell
Added salt to the wound
Voices dreadful, voices scaring
Vibrated the room like an earthquake
Almost grounding the entire room

Shadows dark as darkness....
Voices hell as hell....
