Goodnight Moon
Serafin Lyrics

There’s a nail in the door
I'm feeling paranoid and unsafe, someone might have tried to break in

And there’s glass on the lawn
I see broken glass outside, someone might have vandalized my property

Tacks on the floor
There are sharp objects on the ground, I'm afraid to walk around barefoot

And the TV is on
I've left the TV on for background noise, to drown out any unusual sounds

And I always sleep with my guns when you’re gone
I feel vulnerable without you here, so I keep weapons nearby for protection

There’s a blade by the bed
I keep a weapon close to me while I sleep, just in case

And a phone in my hand
I'm ready to call for help at a moment's notice

A dog on the floor
My pet is here to protect me, but sometimes even that doesn't feel like enough

And some cash on the nightstand
I keep some cash nearby in case I need to leave quickly

When I’m all alone the dreaming stops
I can't relax or feel safe when I'm by myself

And I just can’t stand
I'm overwhelmed and scared

What should I do I’m just a little baby
I feel helpless and vulnerable like a child

What if the lights go out
I'm scared of the dark, especially when I'm alone

And maybe and then the wind just starts to moan
The slightest noise can put me on edge, making me even more anxious

Outside the door he followed me home
I think someone might be watching me, and it's terrifying

So goodnight moon I want the sun
I can't wait until morning when it's light again and I might feel safer

If it’s not here soon
I need this feeling of danger and fear to end quickly, I can't take it anymore

I might be done
I don't know how much more of this I can handle

No it won’t be too soon ’til I say goodnight moon
I won't be able to sleep or feel safe until this is all over

There’s a shark in the pool
I feel like danger is all around me, even in a place that should be safe

And a witch in the tree
I can't even trust the things that should be familiar or normal, like a tree in my yard

A crazy old neighbor and he’s been watching me
I feel like there's someone in my area who is a threat, and I'm constantly on alert

And there’s footsteps loud and strong coming down the hall
I hear noises and I'm terrified of who - or what - might be behind them

Something’s under the bed
I feel like something is lurking just out of sight, and it's terrifying

Now it’s out in the hedge
I can't predict where the danger might come from, it feels like it's everywhere

There’s a big black crow sitting on my window ledge
Even the animals and birds around me seem ominous and threatening

And I hear something scratching through the wall
I can't even trust the safety of the walls around me, there's always a chance of something breaking through

Well you are up so high
Looking up at the moon reminds me of how vulnerable and small I feel in comparison

How can you save me?
I feel like I need someone to come rescue me from this feeling of constant danger and anxiety

When the dark comes here tonight
I dread the approach of nighttime and the associated feelings of fear and paranoia

To take me up to my front walk and into the bed
I can't escape these feelings even when I'm meant to be someplace safe like my own bed

Where it kisses my face
Even while I'm trying to sleep and forget these worries, they linger

And eats my head
These thoughts and feelings consume me, it's exhausting and overwhelming
