As Night Falls Lyrics

Crimson hues fading to purple haze

As the sky bruises like a victim

Distant mountains choking final sunshine rays

Strangling out the light like an affliction

Look to the forest where the shadows lie

Don't they appear to move

There Unknown horrors slink and vye

And silently judge and disapprove

Is it just imagination terrified

Or is this chilling fear justified

As Night falls

Lock your doors and windows

As night falls

Cradle your young close

As night falls

Don't peer into the gloom

As night falls

What you see stares back at you

A scraping noise could be a limb

That the Howling wind blows

Was that a growl that awful din

And scratching on the windows

A flash of reflective eyes

You pull the shutters aside

Then you see me rise

And ask to come inside

Is it just imagination terrified

Or is this chilling fear justified

As Night falls

Lock your doors and windows

As night falls

Cradle your young close

As night falls

Don't peer into the gloom

As night falls

What you see stares back at you

Like a nursery rhyme

From another time

My pale flesh catches the moonlight

Just like it did the night I died

As Night falls

Lock your doors and windows

As night falls

Cradle your young close

As night falls

Don't peer into the gloom

As night falls

What you see stares back at you
