The one thing that always keeps me awake,
The one thing that never ever goes away,
Stays down in the basement where nobody strays,
Stays below when day to stay in the shade,
Waits till dark to finally make his way,
Climbs up the stairway covered in his cape,
Looks for someone who stayed though it’s late,
To march up the stairs and come where I lay,
To slip his teeth into my throat and take me as prisoner far far away
