Real Monsters

There are real monsters
when you turn out the light,
real monsters
that can give a fright,
real monsters--
such a scary sight,
real monsters
that live at night.

You never expect them,
from them you can not hide
for they never show
their true inside
until it is
always to late,
until they do what
does make you shake.

Making you shiver
in despair,
making you quiver
and not care
what is
done to you,
make you believe
they are true.

Real monsters
hide under your skin.
Real monsters,
never do they begin
to let you know
what is real
and then they show
the real deal.

Show who they are,
show what they need,
you know fear by far,
and you know their greed
for they are the ones
you least expect;
someones fathers, someones sons
and they will subject
you to their whim,
their wicked power
and make you feel dim
in your darkest hour.

Real monsters,
they are coming for you.
Real monsters,
can the light carry you through?

Real monsters,
what can you do
when the fear
in your heart is true
and they are chasing,
chasing after you?
