Musical notes and musical chairs

As reality begins to fade

Into an ever darker shade

You feel yourself slipping

No longer are you tripping

Screams and cries all muffled and frayed

In blissful reality you wish you had stayed

You reach for a hand but fall to the floor

The louder you cry the faster you soar

All your halloween's have come at once

Sitting in the corner with a hat that say's 'Dunce'

In the middle of the night your phone will ring

'Let me in' the voice will sing

Up the stairs they will come and press against your door

The doorknob will rattle and you will hit the floor

You here the breathing against your ears

Blocking the peephole they draw your fears

You tremble and shut your eyes tight

The sound of fading footsteps calms your fright

And the music plays on...
