You want a monster?

I've got a monster.

Hidden here in the dark

Waiting, watching, listening

To the pace of a beating heart.

You want a scare?

I've got a scare.

Quick, and vicious, without compare

When it comes for you

When it gets you, it'll leave its mark.

You want a fear?

I've got a fear.

To haunt me every night.

It comes with friends

It finds me here

In these nightmares, my savior becomes a clock.

Tick-tock.

Wakes me up to wonder, just how long it'll be

Until

my time runs out.

AN: Just to clarify, Sonic is referring to Fleetway of 'Sonic the Comic', the infamous , and Dark Sonic of 'Sonic X'. 3 dark sides that the Sonic fanbase seem to just adore- with good reason- though I'd imagine that the impact of this prominence upon Sonic himself may not exactly be the best for his own state of mind.
