Bump In the Night

Paralyzing uncertainty Of things we haven't seen Shadows of unknown origins That invade our very dreams Sometimes, it's the sounds That go bump in the night It hijacks our minds And fills our hearts with fright Imaginations run wild As we shiver and we shake Our voice has betrayed us Not a sound can we make Our eyes closed so tightly As we cover up our heads In fear of the monsters That live beneath our beds Imaginary footsteps Keep timing with our heart As their beats intertwine Like two lovers far apart The things that's in our closets Scare our minds the most It's filled with all our nightmares Our goblins and our ghosts The shadows then start fading As the sun begins to rise The darkness now is gone And we open up our eyes The room is suddenly void Of nighttime's wicked intrusion This, that's held us hostage, Was simply an illusion
