A night creature spreads terror,
At the dark, as angels' skins got fairer.
Bringing the promise of an ill omen,
A tragic melody that wasn't common.
The night creature, small in size,
Magnificent tragedies would make arise.
Horrors were made in his name,
His arrival would be put in the wall of fame.
So as you go to sleep tonight,
Make sure you turn off every light.
The night creature wanders in starless skies,
Drawn to those with open eyes.
