Before you go to sleep tonight
You'll think of me
Am I under the bed or in your head
I'll be in your dreams
Did you say your prayers
Did you lock the doors
And turn out the lights
Head down, covers up
I have you in my sights

All the things you've seen
All the things you believe
Your fear of me
It's all your fault you see

Because of you I will always be around
No proof of me has ever been found
I am only seen in the minds of those who fear
But you lay awake
Wondering if I am Near

As the years go by many stories
have been told
I am feared by all
The young and the old
You look for me in the shadows
And under the stairs
You feel me staring at you
But I am not anywhere
