All at Once

Shadows endlessly deepening
 So much for bravery
 Fear is overtaking
 At the sounds of creeps
 And creatures beneath me
 Holding your eyes shut wont do a thing
 One by one they're advancing
 What choice is left but
 Standing up against them
 With parades of plastic, stuffing and fabric
 Sound the alarms
 We'll hold them 'til dawn
 All At Once
 We will run them from our shores
 We will rise
 No more sleepless nights in horror
 We won't see this evil defeat us
 March with me we're off to war
 We'll stand our ground and we'll fight
 We'll take back the night
 How can this still be happening?
 The things I've seen
 No one would believe me
 Years of holding back relentless attacking
 Have left me on my own
 I know I've got to try
 I've spent my whole life saying
 That it's all in my head
 I'm afraid they're very real
 The monsters under your bed
 And I've tried so hard to stop them
 As they come from the depths
 I know it sounds completely crazy
 But you're all I've got left
 All At Once (grab your guns)
 We will run them from our shores
 We will rise (hear our cries)
 No more sleepless nights in horror
 We won't see this evil defeat us
 March with me we're off to war
 We'll stand our ground and we'll fight
 We'll take back the night
 You laugh but you don't have a clue
 You have to believe this is true
 All At Once, if you must, cast your stones and write me off
 But if you lock me up, it sure wont help at all
 They'll come again, it wont end, there'll be no one to defend you
 If I'm stuck inside a cell when darkness falls
 Please! Don't leave me here in these chains! Set me free!
 You don't understand, they're on their way!
 I can't protect you from here
 Don't you see? This is the end. (Good god!)
 The sounds of their screams as it's all falling down
 Their monstrous footsteps quake the ground
 I hear humanity fall
 And I plead, forgive me I've failed you.
