Step forward and see the light grow As your vision fades to black Legs grow weak, you falter, fall down Never able to get back In inferno each ember's glow Beckons you like moth to flame Lungs spark with a smoke as you drown In the shackles of your shame
This melody, I hear it trying to sneak into so many songs I make. I hear it when I start to get stressed. I hear it in my nightmares. It is so simple, calming in a way, yet still haunting every time I hear it. Then again, most times I hear it on an out of tune piano. No matter what key, the melody always unnerves me. Some years ago, I made a song with this melody, that was where it all started. The song, believe it or not, had the same name. Nightmares. This one shown is Nyctophobia, the fear of the dark. In a way it's very similar to dark fountains in Deltarune, but as opposed to letting you see again, even when you try to picture something in your head it's silhouette blocks you. Every light gets snuffed, every candle hisses with a dying cry.
