Last night I woke up from a pleasant dream While you had nightmares lying next to me Tell me what haunts you in your sleep It brings to mind familiar memories An image of the warmest summer day a monster watches while the children play You ask me if I can relate Truth is I used to be afraid Till I approached him as a friend And that's the last I heard of Slender Man Sent from my thoughts off to a distant land Where dated fears come to retire A growing mind has no desire To be concerned with make believe Now hear my voice call out a warning when I'm gone without a whisper in the morning I guess you're packing up to leave Just forget that you believe Pretend that we are all the same But I'm still waiting with the devil Where false confessions aren't allowed for This is not your second voice This time you don't have a choice But to look in my empty eyes So look into my empty eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes If there's a cry that hides behind your laugh When you spot shadows in your photographs That empty white face in your bed Can never be considered dead As long as he's living in your head
