Shadows
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
Every time I close my eyes
When I'm alone in bed at night
I find them there waiting for me on the other side
My eyes open up, I can't breathe, I'm paralyzed
And I'm certain they are with me in my room
I tried to scream, and I let out a sigh
I prayed to God and received His reply
A shadow consumed me, I knew that it was my time
He said, "It's been fun, kid, we'll see you tomorrow night"
And I'm certain that the words he spoke were true
So I'll sleep when I'm dead now, because
They're coming to get me (go back to bed)
They're coming to get me (it's all in your head)
They're coming to get me
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (go back to sleep)
They're coming to get me (it's only a dream)
They're coming to get me
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
Drinking black coffee and rubbing my eyes
Dreaming of sleep and pretending I'm fine
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
But Mother and Father weren't even a little
Surprised (go back to bed, this is all in your head)
"Of course you have nightmares
The garbage you put into your mind isn't healthy
And your diet is worthless too"
But I know they'll be sorry in the end
They're coming to get me (go back to bed)
They're coming to get me (it's all in your head)
They're coming to get me
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (you shouldn't complain)
They're coming to get me (they think you're insane)
They're coming to get me
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
It's hard to explain what goes on in my brain
Maybe they're right and I'm not thinking straight
A little of sleep could be all that I need
Or maybe the shadows are waiting to take me away in my dreams
I can't keep this up forever
I need some kind of release
Gotta keep myself together
'Til the time comes
'Cause I know that this won't stop until
They're coming to get me
They're coming to get me
They're coming to get me
They're coming to get me (go back to sleep)
They're coming to get me (it's only a dream)
They're coming to get me
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me-e
They're coming to get me-e-e
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me-e
They're coming to get me-e-e
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me-e
They're coming to get me-e-e
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me-e
They're coming to get me-e-e
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
Oh, they're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
Maybe I'll let them take me (the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
I think I'll let them take me (the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
They're coming to get me (the shadows are coming)
Maybe I'll let them take me (the shadows are coming)
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
(The shadows are coming, the shadows are coming)
