Standing by the window, in refractive haze

Horns and claws bewilder, a child's sleepy gaze

The silence is deafening, staring at the beast

Is it here to devour me, does it want to feast

Cover my eyes and then I pray for it to go away

Why is it here what does it want and is it gonna stay

What could I do should I say something or go back to sleep

Too much to bear I hope that this all ends up being a dream

Is it a cryptid or a demon or is it Lucifer

The kind of thing that I read about in books of folklore

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

What is a defenseless child to do

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

I know what I saw with my own eyes

Standing there caressed by pale moonlight

All these years have passed I've realized

A succubus is what I saw that night
