Who am I? Who am I?
I am he that watches you with a hidden eye
I am he that watched you from birth
I will live when you descend from this earth
I am he that watched your every step
I am he that put those nightmares while you slept
I am he who walks in the shadows of your dreams
I am that awful sound that screams
I am the one who is dressed in cloaks of black
I am he who is always creeping behind your back
I am that shadow in which children cry
I am like the devil, that I cannot deny
In your life, I am always nearby
I am he that when you are gone, l will still remain
Can you not guess who I am? Can you not guess my name?
I am sorry, but you will, when your soul I do reclaim
