Monsters

Something about tonight scares the hell out of me Doubtful of the times they told me "the monsters aren't real" Was it just the wind? But I could swear it was real Dark and full of hunger I heard it whisper to me "we're coming for you" Walking faster down the hall Was it just my heart beating? Or did I hear footsteps right behind me? They're getting so much closer I break into a cold sweat as I run down the stairs knowing that if I fall They will consume me Quick! The door, so close But as I reach I feel it's hot breath Against my neck Its to late As I turn to face it White with dread Nothing I can do but wait for the end Just close your eyes And pray to God the end comes quick And damn the ones who always said "the monsters aren't real" Amusing in a way Liars that they are I would laugh If I wasn't busy screaming
