[Intro – Fast ticking clock / distorted whispers]
(Tick… tick… tick…)
Don’t turn around…
You know what you’ll see.
The room you locked…
Still has the key.
[Verse 1]
Cold October, streetlights flicker,
Footsteps getting closer, getting quicker.
Leaves are dancing across the road,
Carrying secrets nobody told.
Old photographs with faded eyes,
Watching from the walls at night.
Every shadow, every sound,
Feels like something coming down.
The attic creaks, the floorboards shake,
Like something woke up from a mistake.
You changed your name, you changed your place,
But the past still knows your face.
[Pre-Chorus – Rising tension]
You hear the knocking…
Three times slow.
You tell yourself…
“There's nobody home.”
But every year when October comes,
The thing you buried starts to run.
[Chorus – Massive drop]
RUN FROM THE MIDNIGHT ROOM!
Where all your nightmares come back through.
The dolls are staring, the mirrors move,
The walls remember what you went through.
CAN YOU FEEL IT UNDER YOUR SKIN?
The darkness crawling from within.
You locked the door, you hid the truth…
But something’s been waiting there for you.
[Verse 2 – Faster, more aggressive]
Old school photos, broken frames,
Whispering forgotten names.
Halloween parties, teenage fears,
Things you buried for all these years.
The basement light begins to blink,
Pulling you closer than you think.
A voice you know, a voice you hate,
Calling from behind the gate.
The costumes hanging in the hall,
Look like shadows standing tall.
The laughter fades, the silence screams,
Welcome back to your old dreams.
[Bridge – Breakdown / heartbeat sound]
(Heartbeat speeding up)
One…
Two…
Three…
The monster isn't underneath your bed.
It's every word you never said.
Every fear you pushed away…
Every memory you locked away…
It learned your name.
It learned your pain.
And tonight…
It’s coming back again.
[Final Chorus – Full intensity]
RUN FROM THE MIDNIGHT ROOM!
There’s nowhere left for you to move.
The ghosts you made, the scars you hide,
Are waiting on the other side.
THE CLOCK IS STRIKING HALLOWEEN!
The darkest night you’ve ever seen.
You thought you escaped what haunted you…
But the haunting was always you.
[Outro – Whisper fading]
(Tick… tick… tick…)
The door is open.
The room is waiting.
And now…
You’re remembering.
