Lying awake alone in this hospital bed,
There are a million thoughts in my head,
I can hear footsteps creeping around,
I feel weak, I'm falling to the ground.

The rustling of the curtains scares me,
The shadows on the wall, I can see,
It is a frosty, cold winters night,
My body is shaking with fright.

I hear a whistling coming from outside,
Under the duvet covers, I will hide,
The walls seem to be slowly closing in,
It is a dark night, the light is only dim.

Being beaten until I'm black and blue,
Seeing the terrifying face that is you,
Lying in the hospital, I am in pain,
I don't want this to happen, ever again.

The shadows seem to be leaping out,
Can't I cry, scream or even shout?
My bones are all broken, I am hurt,
Lying all alone in this night shirt.

You cruel, crackling laugh is on my mind,
The fright I felt as you crept up behind,
Everything's back to normal, I look around,
No more shadows, footsteps on the ground.

I slowly begin to close my tired little eyes,
I can no longer here my desperate cries,
Lying here alone in this hospital bed,
I am just lucky that I am not dead.
