[Intro] Midnight breathing down the hall, Tiny footsteps through the walls. Bedroom door is open wide, Something’s waiting just outside. Flash the light, then count to four, Check the closet, check the door. No one hears me when I cry— Don’t fall asleep… Don’t close your eyes. [Verse 1] No cameras watching, no place to hide, Just a flashlight shaking at my side. Every shadow starts to move, Every sound becomes a clue. Freddy’s laughter fills the room, Tiny nightmares spell my doom. Bonnie’s waiting down the hall, Chica answers every call. Foxy’s hiding where clothes should be, Something breathing right next to me. I slam the door, my heartbeat climbs— Another hour, another night. [Pre-Chorus] Listen close… Is that breathing at the door? Hold your ground… I’ve survived this fear before. Five more seconds feel like years, Every ticking clock feeds the fear. [Chorus] DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES! They’re coming when the lights go down. DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES! Nightmares crawling all around. Run to the doorway, flash the light, Turn back around and hold on tight. From twelve to six I’m trapped inside— Whatever you do… DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES! [Verse 2] Night two, night three, it’s getting worse, Every dream becomes a curse. Teeth in shadows, glowing stares, Something waits beneath the stairs. Bedside monsters multiply, Little Freddles watching nearby. I turn around—they disappear, But every second brings them near. Nightmare Fredbear fills my head, Golden shadow beside the bed. Hallway empty, lights burn low, Where he’ll appear, I’ll never know. Clock keeps crawling toward the dawn, I tell myself to carry on. Because somewhere past this endless night, Morning waits behind the light. [Pre-Chorus] Listen close… Was that breathing at the door? Hold your ground… I can’t take much anymore. Every whisper, every sound, Means another nightmare’s coming around. [Chorus] DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES! They’re coming when the lights go down. DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES! Nightmares crawling all around. Run to the doorway, flash the light, Turn back around and hold on tight. From twelve to six I’m trapped inside— Whatever you do… DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES! [Bridge] Was it real? Was it all inside my head? Why can’t I escape this bed? A broken promise, a birthday cry, A memory that refuses to die. The clock strikes five— I’m almost there. One more hour. One more scare. Fredbear’s shadow fills the hall… Don’t move. Don’t breathe. Don’t blink at all. [Final Chorus] DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES! The nightmare wants another round. DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES! Hear that laughter getting loud. Flash that hallway, guard the night, Keep those monsters out of sight. Six A.M.—the morning finally shines, But tomorrow night… THE NIGHTMARE COMES ALIVE! [Outro] Bedroom quiet… Morning light… Maybe now I’m safe tonight. But when the hallway starts to breathe, And something moves where I can’t see… I know the rule. I know the signs. Don’t fall asleep… Don’t close your eyes.
