Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [high Shaking violin Soft string drones] I hear it breathing In the ceiling In the floorboards Underneath me [Verse 1] Cold air On the back of my neck Shadows Where the light should be Walls sigh Like they're learning to speak Every step I take Steps behind me [Chorus] Something’s lurking in the dark I can feel it Feel it Feel it Reaching fingers for my heart But I can’t see it Can’t see it Every corner Every mark Turns to eyes that never leave me Something’s lurking in the dark I can feel it Can’t see anything [Verse 2] Name scratched In the dust on the frame My name But I live alone Floorboard Lifts and settles again Like a hand Pressing through the stone [Chorus] Something’s lurking in the dark I can feel it Feel it Feel it Reaching fingers for my heart But I can’t see it Can’t see it Every corner Every mark Turns to eyes that never leave me Something’s lurking in the dark I can feel it Can’t see anything [Bridge] (oh) if I close my eyes It leans in closer If I try to run The room grows colder Breathing in my ear But there’s nothing there Just the sound of my pulse And the heavy air [Chorus] Something’s lurking in the dark I can feel it Feel it Feel it Reaching fingers for my heart But I can’t see it Can’t see it Every whisper Every spark Feeds the thing that waits beneath me Something’s lurking in the dark I can feel it Can’t see anything [Outro] [violin climbs Then holds on a thin Trembling note] I can feel it But I can’t see Anything

Sparse horror score opening with solo high-register violin glissandos and tremolo, then a distant piano doubles the motif. Gloomy, cinematic production with eerie drones, subtle reversed textures, and soft female vocals close-miked with heavy reverb. Verses stay whisper-quiet and tense, chorus swells with layered, breathy harmonies and low booms that pulse like a heartbeat, then strip back to the lonely violin for the ending., vocal, violin
