Lyrics
Please turn out the light
Are you feeling alright?
Please don't make me fight
I can't sleep at night
There's something moving much closer
That you wouldn't want near ya
Just open your eyes you'll see what I mean
Please, please don't scream
Please, please don't cry
Please, please, please don't die
There can't be a reason
This killing is treason
I don't understand how we made it this far
How did we make it this far
There's something moving much closer
That you wouldn't want near ya
Just open your eyes you'll see what I mean
Please, please don't scream
Please, please don't cry
Please, please, please don't die
Hit first or we'll lose
Respond and we'll lose
They forced us to choose this way
They must pay this day
There's something moving much closer
That you wouldn't want near ya
Just open your eyes you'll see what I mean
Please, please don't scream
Please, please don't cry
Please, please, please don't die
