Hitchhiker

In quiet places
What’s waiting in the darkness
The night feels so cold
And the air smells sour

There’s something not quite right
I think I know a truth
Then it fades
It keeps nagging

The stars adorn my eyes
The night seems far too bright
And the air smells sour

What’s waiting in the darkness
Of empty places

I think I know
But I don’t want to go
No I don’t want to go
I can still see his eyes
He’s coming for me now
It’s tearing through my shadow

And he says
Join the stillness
