Rain on the glass. It sounds like a drum
On the edge of the town where the shadows are numb
There's a house on the hill, they say no one dares
But I don't need a key, for I'm already there
You came here for chills, a legend, a fright
Now, the walls start to bleed in the gloom of the night
You clutch at your flashlight. You whisper a prayer
But the cold you just felt, well, that wasn't the air.
I am the voice in the static and hiss
The shadow that waits for your final, sweet kiss
Run, little dreamer, run out of the light!
There's no place you can hide from the coming of night.
You can't always, always keep your eyes open and wide
You are bound to fall asleep, and I'll be inside.
I'm always watching.
The door slams behind you, a gust or a hand?
You turn every corner, and you try to make a stand
But the floorboards are groaning. They know every step
Of the life that you're holding, the secrets you've kept.
I seep through the cracks, I ride on the dust
I feed on your fear and your broken-down trust
You think you're awake, you pinch at your arm
But the scent of the roses is laced with my harm.
I am the voice in the static and hiss
The shadow that waits for your final, sweet kiss
Run, little dreamer, run out of the light!
There's no place you can hide from the coming of night.
You can't always, always keep your eyes open and wide
You are bound to fall asleep, and I'll be inside.
I'm always watching.
You found the house, now the house has found you
A beautiful nightmare, a terror made new.
You can bolt up the window and triple-lock the door,
But the key to your safe place is me, and nothing more.
In due time, your eyelids will grow heavy and frail,
The watch that you keep is destined to fail.
I am the voice in the static and hiss
The shadow that waits for your final, sweet kiss
Run, little dreamer, run out of the light!
There's no place you can hide from the coming of night.
You can't always, always keep your eyes open and wide
You are bound to fall asleep, and I'll be inside.
I'm always watching.
[Whispered, fading]
Sleep now... just rest... I'm right here...
There's no place to hide...
Always watching...
[Laughter, cold, and dry]
