Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

October thirtieth the sun goes down slow

Something in the hallway starts to grow

I pulled the covers to my chin

Creaking from the attic creeping in

Mama said don't answer if you hear your name

That voice ain't yours it's playing games

Pre-Chorus

Midnight coming

Midnight coming

Keep your eyelids shut

Chorus

The monsters come at midnight

They crawl out from the drain

The monsters come at midnight

From the closet and the walls again

Stay asleep stay asleep

You'll be safe in your dreams

The monsters come at midnight

And they only take the ones who scream

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Stay asleep stay asleep

Oh-oh-oh

Verse 2

Underneath the mattress something taps

Three knocks then a long low laugh

My little brother crying down the hall

I couldn't move I couldn't call

Dress up real or don't dress at all

Cause a costume that's a lie gets you dragged through the fog

Pre-Chorus

Midnight coming

Midnight coming

Keep your eyelids shut

Chorus

The monsters come at midnight

They crawl out from the drain

The monsters come at midnight

From the closet and the walls again

Stay asleep stay asleep

You'll be safe in your dreams

The monsters come at midnight

And they only take the ones who scream

Bridge

Down the drain

Through the wall

From the deep forest dark

Screams carry far

Whispers in the shadows

Calling out your name

Don't you go to them

Don't you play their game

Dragged at midnight

Dragged at midnight

Drop

Midnight midnight midnight

They come for you

Midnight midnight midnight

They come for you

Chorus

The monsters come at midnight

They crawl out from the drain

The monsters come at midnight

From the closet and the walls again

Stay asleep stay asleep

You'll be safe in your dreams

The monsters come at midnight

And they only take the ones who scream

Outro

Mm

Stay asleep

Mm-hmm

Stay asleep
