What do you do when you feel so alone?
The black pitch of night
and a feeling, like a chill down your back
A premonition something, isn't right

Each shadow contorts
Each noise becomes suspicious
Villains with their cohorts
Show they are truly evil, and vicious

Prowling creatures, on the lawn
Psychos and Killers, lurk in the hall
Spiraling nightmares begin to spawn
But none can compare, to the worst of them all

The truth that lies behind the fear
The cause of the goosebumps on your neck
The taunting whispers in your ear
And those things, that make you a wreck

They are not the noises, or the shadows
No not the creatures on the lawn,
For they do not exist.
And tonight you are safe,
the killers left you off their list
The nightmares that lurk inside your head
Can all be explained by the note you read

The truth, they say will set you free
But ignorance is truly bliss indeed
A haunting fact, that follows you
Forever and always it will be true
The life you thought you once knew
Was just a fabrication, someone drew
