• When Darkness fills each home at night,
    When all that's good,
    Leaves with the light,
    That is when I come.
    You'll hear the click clack of my teeth,
    As I slowly wake.
    You'll hear me hiss as I breathe.
    My scales slide slowly across your floor,
    As I come with my friend fear,
    Through your bedroom door.
    I'm all that makes you cower.
    I'm all that makes you scream.
    The darkness gives me power,
    And allows me to enter here.
    But relax now for you'll live and see tomorrow,
    For your flesh I cannot touch or tear,
    I can only scare and create sorrow.
