When The Shadows Play #titlechallenge In the smallest hours of the cold, winter night, There is a time where monsters come out to give fright.. "What's that noise? Did you hear that sound" But when you look there's nothing around, A howl on the wind, a chime in the air, A cold chill blows but there is no one there.. A strong, powerful smell that arrives with no warning, A breath in your ear that sounds like it's yawning.. A voice in your head that makes you go crazy, An old guard dog asleep who you wish wasn't lazy.. A tick of the clock, a shadow on the wall, They all laugh at you and you can't do anything at all! A personal demon there by your side, The shadows are dancing, taking you for a ride Can't go to sleep just in case they mean harm, But you know you gotta wake up to that awful alarm! So you crawl into your slumber and cover your head, No monsters can get you when you're asleep in your bed.
