Verse 2

Have you run your fingers down the wall , have you felt your neck skin crawl

When you’re searching for the light

Sometimes when you’re scared to take a look , at the corner of the room

You’ve sensed that something’s whatching you

Chorus 2

_Fear of the dark , _fear of the dark,_

I have a constant fear that something’s always near

_Fear of the dark , _fear of the dark,_

I have a phobia that someone’s always there

Verse 3

Have you ever been alone at night , thought you heard footsteps behind

And turn around and no one’s there

And as you quicken up your pace , you find it hard to look again

Because you’re sure there someone’s there

Chorus 3

_Fear of the dark , _fear of the dark,_

I have a constant fear that something’s always near

_Fear of the dark , _fear of the dark,_

I have a phobia that someone’s always there …thats right…

Verse 4

Watching horror films the night before , debating witches and folklore

The unknown troubles on your mind

And though your mind is playing tricks , you sense and suddenly eyes fix

On dancing shadows from behind

Chorus 5

_Fear of the dark , _fear of the dark,_

I have a constant fear that something’s always near

_Fear of the dark , _fear of the dark,_

I have a phobia that someone’s always there

Outro
