Each time night falls you cannot hide
Yourself from things that live inside,
Still crawling up your shoulder
Despite you're getting older.
Mind goes pitch-dark, you can't but hear
That addle whispers rustling near.
You sink in pillows clenching fists:
You have no doubt that we exist.
Nightmare!
We adore watching you scared
Yes, you know that we DO stare
And you're asking yourself "What's going on?" again
Nightmare!
Spiteful vibes tremble upstairs,
Yes, you know that we ARE there
Can’t stop asking yourself "What's going on?" again
It’s meaningless to rush around,
For you and us are forever bound.
We're in your veins, we're what you breathe,
We are the fears you tried sheathe.
You prey and cry and cry and pray,
You want to sleep this bounds away.
But we shall never let you go.
You’ve learned this years and years ago.
