Midnight marks the darkest hour And I lay in bed awake- As I listen to the tiptoes of an intruder Trying to be sneaky tonight A lean figure appears in my door A smile on their face I swoon as he stands in the moonlight Gleaming in all his dark glory- Mystery always did have a wonderful lure Everything about him spoke a million questions The true embodiment of mystery - Such as Why would this fellow visit me in the dark of night? There were thousands resting just alike My mystery man stalked closer, No caution displayed openly- And as he reached out his gloved hand I felt sparks ignite my form Wonderful! I shot up from bed- The shock was evident on this greek god But I could care less I was done playing games I asked him his purpose His reason For tempting me when the night has grown so cold He vanished- Once my fingers grazed him, He was gone as if he hadn’t come And yet again, I was all alone The mystery man visited me every night- same time same place But once we touched he was gone So I wondered if I was going crazy instead As time grew on I began opening my arms wider To the dark mystery that was this man And eventually, he joined me We became one Madness and all Some say things aren’t always what they seem And perhaps they were right My mystery man Now clear as day- Is no man in truth A man is a monster A darkness My darkness He filled me with fear And anguish And madness Those who cannot resist the temptation Risk losing more than just that- They risk their sanity and mind And revert into their darkest side The temptress always so evil Will wear you as a ring- And mold you to their liking Until you can't think a thing Beware of midnight visitors Though they seem perfect so- They are filled with more lies then mystery And it has truly come to show

Temptations
Midnight marks the darkest hour And I lay in bed awake- As I listen to the tiptoes of an intruder Trying to be sneaky tonight A lean figure appears in my door A smile on their face I swoon as he stands in the moonlight Gleaming in all his dark glory- Mystery always did have a wonderful lure Everything about him spoke a million questions The true embodiment of mystery - Such as Why would this fellow visit me in the dark of night? There were thousands resting just alike My mystery man stalked closer, No caution displayed openly- And as he reached out his gloved hand I felt sparks ignite my form Wonderful! I shot up from bed- The shock was evident on this greek god But I could care less I was done playing games I asked him his purpose His reason For tempting me when the night has grown so cold He vanished- Once my fingers grazed him, He was gone as if he hadn’t come And yet again, I was all alone The mystery man visited me every night- same time same place But once we touched he was gone So I wondered if I was going crazy instead As time grew on I began opening my arms wider To the dark mystery that was this man And eventually, he joined me We became one Madness and all Some say things aren’t always what they seem And perhaps they were right My mystery man Now clear as day- Is no man in truth A man is a monster A darkness My darkness He filled me with fear And anguish And madness Those who cannot resist the temptation Risk losing more than just that- They risk their sanity and mind And revert into their darkest side The temptress always so evil Will wear you as a ring- And mold you to their liking Until you can't think a thing Beware of midnight visitors Though they seem perfect so- They are filled with more lies then mystery And it has truly come to show
