Imaginary Boogeyman
I am what you think about before you sleep,
the shadows around you is where I creep,
feeding off your fears a pleasurable delight
a salacious apetite I feed at night
bow down and behold what terrors i've wrought
i'll leave you helpless lost and distraught
in the battle for souls, i've taken my share
without remorse, a second thought or even a care
I get away with doing all the things that I want
your dreams turn to nightmares as I continue to haunt
when you wake in the morning Im no longer there
you've all but forgotten me don't even care
but when you come back again tonight
i'll be waiting for you my midnight delight
the shadows around you is where I creep,
feeding off your fears a pleasurable delight
a salacious apetite I feed at night
bow down and behold what terrors i've wrought
i'll leave you helpless lost and distraught
in the battle for souls, i've taken my share
without remorse, a second thought or even a care
I get away with doing all the things that I want
your dreams turn to nightmares as I continue to haunt
when you wake in the morning Im no longer there
you've all but forgotten me don't even care
but when you come back again tonight
i'll be waiting for you my midnight delight
