creatures of the night
come hither
gather your desires and meet me by the river
i will tell you a story of a man who dwells beneath the theatre

scary he is
dressed in rags and scars and
with hair darker than my own twisted thoughts

some say he was once a playwright
ever so great
to even make shakespeare cry in shame

but hard times befell on thee
and a mortal sin he did commit
slit his brother's throat

and asked his father
for a dead bride to be

when his wish was ******
to the theatre, he did flee
and now during every play

he's looking for a bride to be
beware, my children,
for he is lurking beneath your feet
