Go away little monster. There's nothing for you here. The bewilderment in my head has not yet given into fear. Go back into the woods and leave me be. For if you keep tugging on this string you'll release the latent thing inside me.
Go away malevolent beast. Take your terror back outside. I have seen your shadowed face and I have no intent to hide. Go screaming lies through someone else's dream. For though this may be a fragile mind, there's nothing more to find inside me.
Go away little monster. You know the night will soon be gone. Forget about the face that this damp blanket's resting on. Go back into the dark and don't return and may your evil soul forever rot and burn.
