I turned off the bathroom lights

I looked strait in the mirror

Oh Hail you ghost, those damn nights

Why must you come? To put fear in our eyes?

To give us the biggest fright?

To tell us those damn lies?

 

Night after night, I can’t stand the dark.

The mirror I must face

Those damn fear in my eyes

I see you damn ghost

The reflection is not mine

The eyes I stare into

The damned spirit I see

The night I must face

Those eyes, Oh what a lie

 

I lay there in bed

My back to the mirror  

The figure behind me

Oh damn spirit you lie

You stare me down

I am not alone

Oh give me that frown

Why must you haunt me?

To give me the fright?

To tell us those damn lies?

 

I feel you behind me

The reflection that’s not mine

Oh the freaky eyes

I know I’m not alone

You stand there behind me

All I can say, thanks

You think that’s a lie

Now I know the fears of mine

You make me realize the fear in times

I am not alone

A spirit that stands besides me

Who shares the same fear of mine
