Midnight is the witching hour
If you believe that kinda thing
And most people won't admit it if they do
Midnight is the time when a door opens from our world
into the next, and we are visited
by the dark spirits of the shadow lands
The incubus, the succubus, the old hag
Visitors are known by many names,
But each story bears the same marks
The demons come after midnight
In the first three hours of the new day
When we're alone and vulnerable
Deep asleep and helpless
When we cannot move
They lay on us, press on us, suffocate us
Take from us what is most precious
Our lives, our love, our sanity
Our sleep..
If you believe in that kinda thing
