[spoken intro]
the halls are dark
The strings are thrumming
The shadows grow near
[Chorus]
Light the candles
Expell the monsters
(But the monsters are us)
[Verse one]
Sing your sorrows
Tickle the ivory keys
Spill your thoughts
(Or your blood)
[Verse two]
The old ones hunt
The newcomers run
You better hide
(You better hide)
Or you'll be killed for fun
[Chorus repeats]
[Verse three]
The time is good
The halls are bright
If you run
You'll be alright
