[Verse 1] (Dramatic Horror Performance, Awkward, Shy. Emotional) In the shadows, I reside, Always find me by your side. Creeping closer all the time, No use running—you are mine. [Verse 2] (Cheerful, Almost Teasing) Every path is closing in...closing in...closing in. Tried to run? Tried to Run! Tried to run! Well, guess again! Look, I don’t like to make this hard, [Dialogue] (Awkward, Rambling) I just—I mean, I play the part! [Chorus] (More Confident, More Theatrical) I’m a monster, Yeah, I know. So I can never let you go. I play my part, I take it slow, You’ll trip, you’ll fall— That's just how it goes. [Dialogue] (Mocking, Playful) Aww...poor baby!..You fell! (Pause) Let me help! [Verse 3] (Patient, Taunting, But Still Awkwardly Playful) The darkness creeps, You try to flee, But every step? That’s where I’ll be. I don’t chase—I take my time, You’ll be mine… eventually. [Chorus] (Theatrical, Self-Aware, Mocking) I’m a monster, Yeah, I know. And I’ll catch you, eeney meeney money moe! No escape, it’s just for show, Curtain Call! I’ll steal the show. [Dialogue] (Flustered, Talking to Herself) "Uhm Oops... Sorry, boss! I didn't mean it! [Bridge] (Creepy, Sing-Song, Twisted Comfort – Sinister) In the darkness, Where we play, You won’t get far—don’t look away. Oops— Time to take you away. [Dialogue] (Casual, Awkward, But Still Creepy) "Oh! That actually worked? I mean—uh… yeah, of course, it did!" (Beat, very awkward) "Wait, you didn’t fall asleep yet...? (sigh) (Pause) (pause) Let me fix that!" [Chorus- annoyed aggressive] I played my part. Sorry—this is how it has to go. Sleep tight—don’t fight—just go with the flow. [Dialog-Angry] "Nighty Night!"
