The monsters
At night
Tug at my sheets
In my weird and
Creepy dreams

Wind is blowing
Outside,
As loud as it can

Then I hear
A door slam

It's the creepy
Monster
From another
Land

It comes chasing
After me,

As they grab a hold
Of my sleeve

I wake up from my
Dream and start
To scream

Then end up in
A cry
And wondering
Why

The monsters
Were really
Coming after me

Getting down
In a silence
Of pain,

Praying to God
That it'll all
Go away someday

Amen
