Soul Stealer

By l mo

They say he's a legend.
They say he's a myth.
They say there's nothing like him
That truly exists.

He wanders the night
Searching to fed.
He feeds on the souls,
He sucks it out of their heads.

Some say he brings torment.
Some say he brings peace.
I say he brings happiness,
Even if you're deceased.

Every night I lie awake,
And when I look out on the street,
I see the monster moving
Very quickly on it's feet.

I can't wait for him to come.
I'm ready to die.
Soul Stealer come get me.
I've said my good-byes.

I stand in the street,
Ready for him to come.
He glides quickly towards me,
Soon I'll finally be gone.

They say he's a legend.
They say he's a myth.
I say they're lying,
And they won't be missed....
