There's a monster in the woods
That's made of nothing but the Night
Likes to eat children up
Likes to stalk and listen
To little hearts, and rushing blood
Knows where you are
Knows how to get you to come
There's a monster in my dreams
Creeping and crawling around
I can always feel
When He is around
I don't understand
These thoughts, I am drifting
I don't understand
But it's probably because He's near
I feel it in my bones
Like how some can feel the storms
The corners are dark
But I see clearly
There's a monster in the woods
Who loves small children
I am not a child
But I'm sure He likes me too
Pills that make me sleepy, are spilled across the rug
Circle with an X, is drawn upon the walls
I don't understand
I don't want to understand
I can feel Him close
I feel it deep within my bones
The monster, He is here
Although I don't know why
Blood is dripping down, dripping down my nose
I do not hurt
There's a monster, He is, He is everywhere
I don't know, how I know
My eyes are so, so tired
I can't feel my feet or even my nose
I just want to sleep
Sleep forever
I don't even care, if He follows me in my dreams
"Oh, why hello. How are you today sir?"
You never answer me
"Hello, how can I be of service?"
I know in my mind, what I have to do
You control me, and all of the others
This is our purpose
I just know it
There's a monster in the woods
That's made of nothing but the Night
Likes to eat children up
Likes to stalk and listen
To little hearts, and rushing blood
Knows where you are
Knows how to get you to come
So please be good and come
