creatures in the dark

Creatures lurking everywhere haunting those without a care

Hiding up in the trees waiting for the chance

To take these shields away from the ignorant and watch them bleed from

The outside in, making them think this is the end.

Trying to take what you think is rightfully yours,

but it isn't yours for the taking

why are you making up this plot

why must you continue to try and stop,

the world and make it your own.

Why can't you just leave it alone?

You keep watching, wanting, and waiting for the opportunity to take us all,

Laugh as we stumble and fall,

Try to make us cry out when we wake

How long will it take?

Until you go along with your evil plan?

So many unanswered questions

So much-too little time

What are you trying to do?

What have you got hidden under your belt, tucked away in your sleeve, hidden away from the world...

You may be watching and waiting outside our windows, lurking around town...

But you're just a creature of my imagination or are you?
