[Verse 1]
Key in the lock
Door moans back at me
Dust on the stairs
Like it’s been waiting
Floorboard breath
Right under my feet
Picture frames tremble
But there’s no breeze
[Chorus]
I know I’m not alone in this house
Something in the dark knows my name
Cold hand on my shoulder
Burning in my veins
I know I’m not alone in this house
Can’t blame it on the wind this time
Every shadow’s moving in time with mine
[Verse 2]
Mirror at the end
Fogged from the inside
See my own face
Then yours slips behind
You’re humming that tune
You sang in ’93
I mouth the next line
You sing it with me (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
I know I’m not alone in this house
Something in the dark knows my name
Cold hand on my shoulder
Burning in my veins
I know I’m not alone in this house
Can’t blame it on the wind this time
Every shadow’s moving in time with mine
[Bridge]
You tap on the wall
Three knocks
I answer
You scrape on the door
I turn the key
If this is a curse
Then keep it
Forever
If this is you
Don’t stop haunting me
[Chorus]
I know I’m not alone in this house
Something in the dark knows my name
Cold hand on my shoulder
Burning in my veins
I know I’m not alone in this house
You and me and these creaking signs
Every shadow’s moving in time with mine
[Outro]
