Friends in the Dark

Lightning strikes
And all of the animals
Scurry back to their holes
The million eyes of the nightmare jungle
Make you wish you weren't alone
The trees might bite
Because all of their bark is bending
Into sinister grins

You might be right
If you think that the horror
Is just about to begin
The night is falling
Faith is faltering
And you're alone

Whats your plan to survive
When you find you're alone in the dark
You can pray to the lord of the light
But you ain't gonna get too far
You can sit in the cold, dark, night
And just hope for a spark
You might make your way in the day
But you'll meet friends in the dark

Shapеs emerge from shadows
And thеy're coming from every way
From the black of the briar
They're howling hungry
How will you keep them at bay?
Your blood runs cold
A chill like a knife is cutting right into your veins
Fear takes hold, you pray its the wind
When you hear someone whisper your name

The night is falling
Faith is faltering
And you're alone

Whats your plan to survive
When you find you're alone in the dark
You can pray to the lord of the light
But you ain't gonna get too far
You can sit in the cold, dark, night
And just hope for a spark
You might make your way in the day
But you'll meet friends in the dark

And while you can manage a smile
Under that big, warm, yellowy star
You might be alright in the light
But you'll meet friends in the dark

Hey now! Whats it gonna be?
You need a guide, so how about me?
I can show the way around
Im not afraid! Wait, what's that sound?
Surely you know its no good
To trek alone in the woods
What could be better than a guy
Who's scarier than what's inside?

Don't go
Don't dare go
In there alone
Alone, Alone

Whats your plan to survive
When you find you're alone in the dark
You can pray to the lord of the light
But you ain't gonna get too far
You can sit in the cold, dark, night
And just hope for a spark
You might make your way in the day
But you'll meet friends in the dark

And while you can manage a smile
Under that big, warm, yellowy star
You might be alright in the light
But you'll meet friends in the dark
