Afraid to close your eyes Too scared of what you'll see The nightmares, blood, the horror but it's just a dream You know it's not for real It's only in your head Now lying down to sleep Why do you feel so close to death Terror in the night Not as real as it seems He's come to take your life Awakened by your screams Terror in the night Not as real as it seems He's come to take your life No longer rest in peace Is he real or fantasy He infiltrates your brain He knows your darkest fears You know it's driving you insane Attacking when you least expect In the dead of the night A grotesque sight of rotting flesh Awakened by your cries Terror in the night Not as real as it seems He's come to take your life Awakened by your screams Terror in the night Not as real as it seems He's come to take your life No longer rest in peace You hear his voice, you try to run He sees your every step He's right behind and with his knife He 'll R.I.P. you to your death He comes for you, you cannot hide He wields his bloody knife It R.I.P.s your skin, slashes your face Tonight he ends your life Lying in your own cold sweat It's just a dream of death He's not for real you're still alive What are the bloodstains on your bed Remove the sheets to reveal A body torn and scarred Confused and scared a dream come true His laughter from the dark Your worst nightmare realized He's made of bones and flesh Not haunts you in your sleep He's real as is your death Terror in the night Not as real as it seems He's come to take your life Awakened by your screams Terror in the night Not as real as it seems He's come to take your life No longer rest in peace
