Lyrics
Don't turn around, the sound is coming from inside the house
Caution against turning around due to a threat inside the house
Don't turn around, I've found a series of clues
Discovery of evidence or information, urging not to turn around
Draw all the blinds, you'll find you're so much safer
Encouragement to close blinds for safety
Don't let it see the moon if you know what's good
Advice not to let the threat see the moon
Don't let it in again
Warning against allowing the threat to enter again
There is a monster in here, there is a monster I know
Acknowledgment of the presence of a monster
She needs your heart to survive, she was a person just months ago
Explanation that the monster needs a human heart to survive, used to be a person
There is a monster in here, there is a monster I see
Reiteration of the monster's existence and its need for a human heart
She needs your heart to survive, she really terrifies me
Reiteration of the monster's need for a human heart and expressing fear
Don't let yourself be caught, stay out of the forest tonight
Advisory to avoid getting caught, staying out of the forest
It had a human form, but those days are gone
Description of the monster having had a human form in the past
Somewhere inside this home there's now a creature
Indication of a transformation inside the home, creating a creature
So unmistakably strange it shocks and delights
Recognition of the creature's strange and captivating nature
Don't let it in again
Repeat warning not to let the threat back in
There is a monster in here, there is a monster I know
Reiteration of the presence of a monster and its need for a human heart
She needs your heart to survive, she was a person just months ago
Reiteration of the monster's past humanity and its current need
There is a monster in here, there is a monster I see
Reiteration of the monster's existence and the fear it instills
She needs your heart to survive, she really terrifies me
Reiteration of the monster's need for a human heart, expressing fear
Don't fall for that innocent act again
Warning not to be deceived by an innocent act
You think you are safe from attack and then
Belief in safety shattered by the presence of a shadowy form
A shadowy form stalks you in the night
Description of a shadowy form stalking in the night
Don't let it in again
Repeat warning not to let the threat back in
Bring out the human you see
Encouragement to reveal the human side
Bring out the daylight in me
Call to bring out the positive and bright aspects of humanity
Bring out the human you see
Repeat call to bring out the positive and bright aspects of humanity
Bring out the daylight in me
-La la la la la, la la la la la
Repetition of a la la refrain
