About the Artist
Lyrics
I am a man who walks alone When I'm walking a dark road At night or strolling through the park And when the light begins to change Sometimes feel a little strange A little anxious when it's dark Fear of the dark Fear of the dark I have a constant fear something's always near Fear of the dark (Fear of the dark) I have a phobia someone's always there 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 Sensed that something's watching you 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 Have a phobia someone's always there Have you ever been alone at night Thought you heard footsteps behind Turned around, no one's there? And though you quicken up your pace You'll find it hard to look again Because you're sure that someone's there 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 someone's always there Come on Fear of the dark, sing it (Fear of the dark) Fear of the dark Fear of the dark Come on Fear of the dark (Fear of the dark) One more Donington (Fear of the dark) Fear of the dark Watching horror films the night before Debating witches and folklore The unknown troubles on your mind And though you try to make eyes fix You sense and suddenly eyes fix On dancing shadows from behind Fear of the dark Fear of the dark I have constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark Fear of the dark I have a phobia someone's always there Fear of the dark, you (Fear of the dark) I have constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark (Fear of the dark) I have a phobia someone's always there When I'm walking a dark road I am a man who walks alone
