Creatures
In the shadow of the darkness, in the time we call the night
lurk the ghosts and evil spirits that cause us all to fright.
There are those who ride the wind, some crawl upon the ground
there is no way to hide from them, for they are all around.
They come in through your windows, they slither on your floor
some can enter with the sounds that come in through your door.
Driven by a hunger, a frenzied need to drain
some of them may take your soul, while others seek your brain.
They have one thing in common, they know the smell of fear
but you can make them go away if they get to near.
To those of you who seek escape from the creatures of the night
take a path you know is good know that you are right.
Tell them all to go away for you are not afraid
they may come up to your door but they will never stay.
Take the time to think it out, else your life be filled with doubt
thus you may well fall victim to those i speak about.
