They look in the windows to see if I'm sleeping, Through the sills and holes they'll come a creeping. Darkness and shadows and scary things fun, Will always keep you up on the run. They mess with your mind so you see things at night, They're bark is far worse than their sharp bite. You might think about how they aren't real, But do you ever realize what they come and steal? Sanity, sweet dreams, and peace of mind, Are what they feast on, they take what they find. Ghosts and goblins and all thing frightening, What they bring is not to my liking. Pray for your children with all of your might, When you go to tuck them in at night. Pray for sweet dreams and safety throughout, Pray for demons through the night without. And when they come and curl up in your bed, You know what came and found them instead.
