lyrics

I only took my eye off the road for a second.
I thought I could see something in the woods, out the passenger window.
It was almost as if something was running alongside the car...
Almost as if it was stalking us...

I didn’t see the little girl until too late.
I swerved to avoid her, but I lost control of the car.
There was a thick fog and it had been snowing all week.
I think I hit a patch of black ice.

When I came to, I realised I was in the town.
Somehow, the car made it down the mountain in one piece.
I thanked my lucky stars and got out to look for help,
But I couldn’t find anyone.

The whole town was deserted; not a soul to be seen,
The fog had rolled in and you could hardly see anything,
Large chunks of the road had been torn up.
It was if the town had been hit by missiles or meteors...

It was the weirdest thing I had I ever seen,
Darkness fell in a matter of seconds,
I stumbled down an alley clutching the wall for support,
I slipped in some liquid and fell to the floor,
