I know you're there. Lurking in the darkness of the night, Cowering in the shadows, avoiding the light, Crouched behind the curtain or hid beneath the bed, Awaiting the chance to dive into my head.
I know you're there. With your bloodshot eyes glowing, never showing, Watching me with a hunger, all the while knowing I fear you most when the daylight's gone, With seemingly endless hours til morning's dawn.
I know you're there. With your black heart pounding in your leathery chest, Knowing too well I'll get no rest As you prowl my room like a ghostly haunt, I know it's my soul that you need and want.
I know you're there. You demon from Hell. I know you can tell My fears are growing and beginning to swell Like a ticking time bomb about to explode. You sit patiently with your evils to unload.
I know you're there. You pitiless beast, ready to feed On my every thought, on my every deed I can feel you staring, glaring, carrying out your scheme To enter my mind through an open dream.
I know you're there. No noise you make as you devise a plan for my soul to take Back to the land of the living dead before I awake. I won't sleep, I won't close an eye As soon as I do I know I'll die.
