Wanna stay.

There’s some spots, that I, need to see.
There’s some things, I need to know.
Creepin, in the darkness.

Candles, all around ya.
And no where, else, to go.

It’s dark as space outside, you’re in 1920’s Louisiana in the southern Bayou area.. and there’s trouble in the night.. and you’re not sure what to make of it..
