When The Lights Fade
A Villanelle For The Vocal "Donβt Turn Around" Challenge
Introduction
It's been implied that this challenge should be about horror, whereas my last two entries have been about succeeding and outpacing anything that might stop you. This one is a little darker.
The music is "Dark End Of The Street" by Ry Cooder
When The Lights Fade
ποΈπβ«π―οΈπΆββοΈπ―οΈβ«πποΈ
Are Those Footsteps Yours, Or A Stalker?
Ice Cold Hands Grip Your Heart, Don't Look Back
As The Lights Fade, The Street Is Darker
β«π―οΈπΆββοΈπ―οΈβ«
You Worry As The Streelights Flicker
No Backward Glance, The Night Is So Black
Are Those Footsteps Yours, Or A Stalker?
β«π―οΈπΆββοΈπ―οΈβ«
Your Phone Is Dead, You Lost The Charger
You Can't Run Fast, And They Might Attack
As The Lights Fade, The Street Is Darker
β«π―οΈπΆββοΈπ―οΈβ«
You're Scared And Move A Little Faster
You Can Hear Their Voices At Your Back
Are Those Footsteps Yours, Or A Stalker?
β«π―οΈπΆββοΈπ―οΈβ«
It's Raining, You Hear Running Water
Drowning In A Fear Of Their Attack
As The Lights Fade, The Street Is Darker
β«π―οΈπΆββοΈπ―οΈβ«
The Light Fades On The Fearful Walker
Frozen And Paralysed, Don't Look Back
Are Those Footsteps Yours, Or A Stalker?
As The Lights Fade, The Street Is Darker
