[Verse]
Night falls thick like a blanket of tar
Moon hides her face like she knows who we are
Knocking
Knocking
Fists like thunder
Who’s out there? The dark pulls me under
[Chorus]
Black-eyed whispers
Cold and hollow
Don't let 'em in
Don't let 'em follow
Creeping closer
Shadows tall
Black-eyed children at the wall
[Verse 2]
Voices scratch like nails on bone
Little hands
But I’m not alone
Let us in
They chant so sweet
Deadly rhythm in their feet
[Prechorus]
No faces
Just those eyes
Black as void
Full of lies
[Chorus]
Black-eyed whispers
Cold and hollow
Don't let 'em in
Don't let 'em follow
Creeping closer
Shadows tall
Black-eyed children at the wall
[Bridge]
What do you want? What do you need?
They stare back
They never plead
Frost on my skin
Breath like ice
Open the door
Pay the price
