Pleasant Dreams
Once the clock stricks midnight the party begins.
Don't run or hide, it won't help you. They see your every move.
They just want to play with you.
That's why they're under you're bed and in you're closet as well.
Why are you crying?
They're not going to hurt you.
Well maybe it all depends on you.
They feed on you're fear, so beware.
Don't go to sleep, that's when it really gets started.
They tickle you're feet till you wake up.
Then they make you a ballon animal and pop it in front of you're face.
Blood goes everywhere, all over you.
Your freaking out, screaming, but no one can hear you.
Your all alone with them, but guess what?
It's all in you're head, your having a bad dream.
All you have to do is wake up for it to be over with.
Until tomorrow night when it happens again.
Goodnight and pleasant dreams my friend.
