[Verse 1]
In the haunted shadows
We all show our teeth
(We all show our teeth)

Beneath a cursed exterior
Lies the same heartbeat
(Lies the same heartbeat)

[Chorus]
So we could fake it all 'til we make it
Or we can let our instincts show
You know i'm standing out in the moonlight
We're getting caught up, but we can let this go
Some are scared of the monsters
They will face their terrors soon
We're gonna stay right here until midnight
And we'll be howling
We'll be howling at the moon

[Verse 2]
With their pitchforks sharpened
Come their judging eyes
(Come their judging eyes)

Don't misunderstand me
Not all wild things bite
(Not all wild things bite)
[Chorus]
So we could fake it all 'til we make it
Or we can let our instincts show
You know i'm standing out in the moonlight
We're getting caught up, but we can let this go
Some are scared of the monsters
They will face their terrors soon
We're gonna stay right here until midnight
And we'll be howling
We'll be howling at the moon

[Bridge]
I'd love to live forever in the darkness
I'm taking full eclipse of the sun
I could stay with you and enjoy the view
If you promise you won't run
Though my teeth are sharp, i'm a lover
And in the day we're all the same
Everyone loves a fright, so embrace the night
Don't let your freak flag fly in vain

Let it go
There will be a time for worry when we're dead
You're in control
And you'll be safe now, so you don't have to hold your breath
[Chorus]
So we could fake it all 'til we make it
Or we can let our instincts show
You know i'm standing out in the moonlight
We're getting caught up, but we can let this go
Some are scared of the monsters
They will face their terrors soon
We're gonna stay right here until midnight
And we'll be howling
We'll be howling at the moon
