The dakness inside.
I can't sleep at night
the evil's creeping in
I can feel it taking me
have I become the fallen

You must prey on the weak
you think it makes you stronger
please remember dog eat dog
then you will feed no longer

I know what scares you
I know all your fears
I smell it inside you
I feed on all your tears

Say your prayers at night
safety still eludes you
I'm underneath your bed
practicing my voodoo

Most fear the darkness
can't say I blame them
I'm not one of those
just another condemned

Fear the noise you hear
it cannot be conquered
just out of your sight
in the dark I am the monster

Screams fly on the wind
I can feel you shiver
no one can save you
mere flesh will be rendered

Everyone has demons
they feed from time to time
I leave mine starving
ready to feed for killing time

Please believe me when I say
it didn't have to be this way
but you had to push those buttons
sad your final hour falls this day

So watch closely behind you
cause you never will know
when you're sins will be answered
from the seeds you've sewn

Cause whats in my head
is truly terrifying
I wait to consume you
You must know I'm not lying
