(Verse 1) In the shadows, in the night, There lurks a demon, filled with spite. With eyes aglow, it seeks its fun, Whispering softly, "Run, children, run." (Chorus) Run, children, run, Through the darkness, you must shun. For in the gloom, its evil's spun, Run, children, run, run, run. (Verse 2) It preys upon the innocent, Its hunger fierce, its intent bent. Through twisted woods, its hunt begun, Echoes resound, "Run, children, run." (Chorus) Run, children, run, Through the forest, don't be stunned. For in its grasp, you'll be undone, Run, children, run, run, run. (Bridge) It whispers curses, black as coal, Its laughter chilling to your soul. With every step, its chase begun, Heartbeats quicken, "Run, children, run." (Chorus) Run, children, run, Through the night, beneath the moon and sun. For if caught, your fate is spun, Run, children, run, run, run. (Outro) So heed this warning, heed it well, In the darkness, it does dwell. With every shadow, its presence spun, Whispering always, "Run, children, run."
