Now it wakes

Now it sees

It whispers in the night

And I hear

And I know

I'll feel the ugly bite

Despairing

All is lost

I feel the thing arrive

It hunts me

I am run down by a demon and eaten alive

Every night in the dark

I hear it calling me

Far at first, nearer then

Coming to bare its teeth

Then it's here at the door

And it picks at the lock

And it pounds and it pounds

With a KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

And it's night after night

After day after night

And it never goes away

Until you hit the lights

The weapon of "knowing"

We'll need where we are going

I will not desert you

And then it can not hurt you

It's ugly. I've seen it.

I've felt the weight beneath it.

And now we lift it away.

The darkness resides deep inside

We choose to stand up and fight

The weapon of "knowing"

We'll need where we are going

I fight here beside you

If you fall, then, so I do

So ugly. I hate it.

Hand in hand we will break it.

And now we send it away.
