Boogeyman

Alone in despair
Every day of my life
When the night has come
I wait in the dark
Sometimes I stare at you
On your sea of dreams

I'm the Boogeyman
And I don't know where to roam
Boogeyman
I'm always on my own

All I'm searching for
Is a friend, nothing more
Won't you play with me?
No, don't be afraid
I'm not what your grandma said
I'm a lonely poor soul

Everyone fears
The Boogeyman
But there's a heart inside this plague
This cold dark night
Is all I have to live
All my life

I'm the Boogeyman
I am here under your bed
Boogeyman
I hear the thoughts inside your head
I'm the Boogeyman
And I don't know where to roam
Boogeyman
I'm always on my own

Once upon a time
Such a long time ago
I was a kid myself
And what am I now?
Just fainting shades of grey
Hiding in a wardrobe

Everyone fears
The Boogeyman
But there's a heart behind the plague
This cold dark night
Is all I have to live
All my life

I'm the Boogeyman
I am here under your bed
Boogeyman
I hear the thoughts inside your head
I'm the Boogeyman
And I don't know where to roam
Boogeyman
I'm always on my own

You don't know me
But you know my name
You can't see me
But you feel my pain
You can't hear me
But you feel my steps
In the dark I am the Boogeyman
Boogeyman
I'm always on my own
Boogeyman
I'm the Boogeyman
My heart is like a stone
I'm the Boogeyman
