lyrics

Once upon a time there was a little boy afraid
Of the crawling things under his bed, the shadows in the cave
The cellar full of terrors in that space between the stairs
Voices in the walls at night, clowns with teeth and hair
He left it all behind him, went to school and got a job
A practical vocation and a mortgage from the mob
When the monsters finally got him they came straight through his front door
His eyes were shut, his papers signed, he couldn't see them anymore

That’s why:
I believe in monsters
I believe in ghosts
I believe in demons
And the blackened witching post
I'm scared of all my nightmares
But the thing that scares me most
Is not believing anymore

Once there was a girl who couldn't sleep without a light
She lived in a castle by the sea and rode horses in the night
She hated taking baths because a witch can smell you when you're clean
But a girl who won't eat her vegetables makes a treat for Sawney Bean
One day she threw it all away in a box out on the street
The castle was foreclosed upon, she moved into a basement suite
She used to hide under the covers from the monsters at the door
Now the Ogre sleeps beside her and she cries forevermore

- Chorus -

The Goblin lives under my bed, he's hungry for my hide
Cthulhu rises in my dreams with the Kraken by his side
I believe in Spring-Heeled Jack and the dark Unseelie Court
I'm scared to see 'em but I'm more afraid of what'll happen if I don't
So keep your feet under the covers, beware of trap doors and black cats
Never kill a spider, make friends with the local rats
Neverwhere's a scary place but it's safer cause it's not
The Real World, where the monsters hide in the nightmares we forgot

- Chorus -
