[Verse 1]

One step at a time, I'm going outta my mind

I'm being hunted by something primal

They're just simple machines, yet, tainted souls, they seem

For five nights, I'll fear for my survival

Are they mechanical? They hunt like animals

Freezing for seconds while I see their corpses

I'm getting panicked now, I'm locking this place down

I'm feeling watched by unnatural forces


[Chorus]

Looks like I'd better run for my life

I'll never be in one piece to see night five

I've got elеven on my tail, with no time to think

Of a way to survive mеchanical instinct


[Post-Chorus]

Good night, sleep tight, don't you let the monsters bite

Good night, sleep tight, don't you let the monsters bite


[Verse 2]

Just an hour more, I'm closer than before

To making it out of this ghastly madhouse

I'm feeling desperate, I'm starting to regret

Taking my chances with no way out

Who's walking down the hall? I can't keep track of them all

A music box plays my dying song

This is my one escape, the mask still on my face

But they have known I've been here all along


[Chorus]

Looks like I'd better run for my life

I'll never be in one piece to see night five

I've got eleven on my tail, with no time to think

Of a way to survive mechanical instinct


[Post-Chorus]

Good night, sleep tight, don't you let the monsters bite

Good night, sleep tight, don't you let the monsters bite


[Bridge]

Here, all alone in the darkness

Why can't I escape their soulless eyes?

It's a lost cause now

They've got my scent, and I can't get out

Now, I'm afraid to look because

They are just beasts to hunt me down

With no way to fight back, the night is already over


[Pre-Chorus]

Good night, sleep tight, don't you let the monsters bite

Good night, sleep tight, don't you let the monsters bite


[Chorus]

Looks like I'd better run for my life

I'll never be in one piece to see night five

I've got eleven on my tail, with no time to think

Of a way to survive mechanical instinct
