Walking in the dark i know im never alone
the ones who bare the mark try to follow me home
haunting my mind like the thought of being dead
appearing as the figure at the end of my bed
no killer on the movie screen
no burned intruder of your dreams
no teenage death on Halloween
this is fucking real not some uncut scene
i know there's something down there waiting for me
trying to pull me into the nightmare
you cant enlist me
read it in a book but it didn't seem true
i swear i see them in the mirror when i'm walking through
paranoia tells me i hear steps on the floor
i blew it off until i seen the hand beneath the door
no glowing red eyes no fangs no fur
dressed in black and posing as your counter-culture
no undead, airborn virus with a cure
defeatist in the flesh with a smile for her lure
I know there's something down there, waiting for me
trying to pull me into the nightmare
you cant enlist me
I know there's something down there, waiting for me
trying to scare me into despair
you cant enlist me
