As Close as You Think - Skankin' Pickle

I am lurking under your bed, but you can’t find me

I have hid inside your head but you can’t find me

Jump up cuz I’m tappin on your shoulder

Can’t you see this monstrous conscience creeping back into your closet?

Always out of sight but almost never out of mind

It will begin to make home your dirty laundry

I am thirsty for your fear

I am goats milk in your beer

Can’t outrun

Don’t even try

Something’s waiting

Close your eyes

Hide and go seek

This is not cuz you can’t find me

I will play you for a fool and never find me

Mom and pops covers cannot shield you from the shadows

Scaling from the floor up to the wall and ceiling

The cracks and creaks you start to hear

Could be your worst and greatest fear

Tip toes now

Careful-Behind you!

Shivers and chills

Nervous thrills

Tension mounts

Saxaphone thrills

Lock the closet

Close the door

To yourself SAY NO MORE…
