Sleep paralysis and hypnagogic hallucinations, when the creature of the night visits you in your waking dream.

lyrics

Have you ever been afraid?
Afraid of something out there?
You close your eyes, and you see
Something’s coming for you
I cannot move, I cannot scream
Paralysed and filled with a fear
Waking up, it disappears
I don’t know what to do

But I begin to see
Why it couldn’t touch me
After all it was just in my mind
Afraid of… The creature of the night

Creature of the night
Deprived of sleep in an endless fight
The gift of a second sight
To purge it you must turn on the light
It lays dormant inside
Deprived of sleep it is black and white
Lost my mind tonight I fell down…

I see the creature of the night
Can’t move, cannot turn on the light
Filled with fright I’m trying to stay quiet
Holding tight under blanket I try to hide

A fearsome monster
Under your bed at this night
Can’t you see? It’s misery
Illusions given form
An evil face, no human race
Got scared and turned on the light
Skipping sleep and I don’t care
if eight is the norm

But, I begin to see. What’s happening to me?
God, why is this happening to me?
Deprived of sleep, mentally tortured to death
Was it really just a nightmare?

Creature of the night
Deprived of sleep in an endless fight
The gift of a second sight
To purge it you must turn on the light
It lays dormant inside,

Deprived of sleep it is black and white
Lost my mind tonight
I fell down before the flight
Creature of the night
Deprived of sleep in an endless fight
Take a grip and hold on tight
It comes…

It comes, for you, your life, down there, laughing demons are in your head
In front, your face, pulls you, into your own insanity

I see the creature of the night
Can’t move, cannot turn on the light
Filled with fright I’m trying to stay quiet
Holding tight under blanket I try to hide

Blues-rock fans - don't let the "cover art" fool you! These guys let their music do the talking! Strong influences showing through, Hendrix, SRV, Trower among others, all blended into a sound of their own. Strong rhythm section and the guitarist turns it every which way but loose! A hidden gem!

I love Witcher's sense of aesthetic in their music. It is by far not the classic raw black metal here, but the opposite end of the spectrum, with majestic melodies, soft drums, overpowering piano and keyboard/synth, the vocals are almost in the background as a story teller, narrating the tales of witch hunt. Very calm, stylish and mournful. sachavonkarl74

US Stoner / Doom Metal. As Kirk Gauthier says, there are many influences here, going all the way back to early Black Sabbath. Most important of all, there is totally awesome music! Thanks SN! Recommended! bmurator

Solid and tasty melodic heavy metal with nice 80s vibes. It's so unexpected and delightful to hear SIREN is back for real! Pumpkin Thierry
