I am a man who walks alone 
 And when I'm walking a dark road 
 At night or strolling through the park 
 When the light begins to change 
 I 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 that something's always near 
 Fear of the dark 
 Fear of the dark 
 I have a phobia that someone's always there   
 Have you run your fingers down the wall 
 And 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 
 You've sensed that something's watching you   
 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 that someone's always there   
 Have you ever been alone at night 
 Thought you heard footsteps behind 
 And turned around and no-one's there? 
 And as you quicken up your pace 
 You find it hard to look again 
 Because you're sure there's someone there   
 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 that someone's always there   
 Fear of the dark 
 Fear of the dark 
 Fear of the dark 
 Fear of the dark   
 Fear of the dark 
 Fear of the dark 
 Fear of the dark 
 Fear of the dark   
 Watching horror films the night before 
 Debating witches and folklore 
 The unknown troubles on your mind 
 Maybe your mind is playing tricks 
 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 that someone's always there   
 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 that someone's always there   
 When I'm walking a dark road 
 I am a man who walks alone
