Darkness Reigns

Darkness comes.

Can you feel it?

Shadows reign,

Don’t you see it?



Hear ye now

The werewolf’s cry;

And see dark shapes

Fly through the sky.



Look into the darkest trees

And see the beasts lurking there.

Feel its eyes.

Feel its stare.



In your mind, it’s watching you.

Is it close? Is it near?

Monsters breathing down your neck.

Can you feel it? This is fear.



Darkness comes.

Can you feel it?

Shadows reign,

Don’t you see it?



The night is alive,

When the Dark Ones walk.

Fear the darkness, run for your life,

Never turn back, never, ever stop.



Strangers walking in the night,

And they’re not quite what they seem.

Vampires take sanguine delight

In her beauty, then her screams.



Ghouls, goblins, monsters, ghosts;

All these things come to you.

Darkness comes; it wants to visit.

Darkness comes, and wants to play.



Darkness comes.

Can you feel it?

Shadows reign,

Don’t you see it?



The night is alive,

When the Dark Ones walk.

Fear the darkness, run for your life,

Never turn back, never, ever stop.



Cold hands and dead men’s eyes:

These things lurk beneath your bed.

Great wolf-man wielding an axe

Coming to you, to make you dead.



Monsters eating of your flesh,

Demons laughing, waiting too.

Biding time, licking lips;

Fear is real and wants to eat you.



Evil stalks the darkness,

And monsters can be real.

Abominations, horrific things,

Wanting your soul to steal.



The night is alive,

When the Dark Ones walk.

Fear the darkness, run for your life,

Never turn back, never, ever stop.



Darkness comes.

Can you feel it?

Shadows reign,

Don’t you see it?
