All Alon in the Tunnel
My journey is long
there’s only one part left
the tunnel
The tunnel is long
it’s as dark as night
it’s a passageway to Hell
going in the tunnel
will I ever come out?
In the tunnel
it’s silent
no sound
no light
a Hell all by itself
I keep going and going
never knowing when to stop
I grow tired
I grow weak
all alone in the tunnel
just me
myself
and I
I hear a noise, a sound
a voice as quite as a mouse
the vioce is not mine
but it calls my name
it gets closer and closer
not stopping, not slowing
I’m not alone in the tunnel
It’s right behind me now
just me, the voice, and Hell
all together in the tunnel
It’s there, behind me
I’m so scared
I want to scream and shout for help
but that would only make things worse
I can feel it now
the voice is with me, breathing down my neck
It gets me
I’m gone
not in the tunnel anymore
I’m in hell
As hot as fire
And now I know
I was not alone in the
tunnel
