you can't leave, no not just yet
if you're gonna go, at least, make your bed
and lock your door
at least come get your things, she screams
i swear i won't grace that hall again
i refuse to meet the demon inside of me
while his words were cutting right between my teeth
father, can you hear my cries
i could really use the touch of your hand
i could really use a savior tonight
falling short of the man i used to be
i'm scared to know the truth about me
i was a much bigger man in my youth
(chorus)
here i stand
at the door to this hall again
it's sinking deep into my chest the things i did
i'm feeling every single word that i had said
this house is the reason that i couldn't go to bed
the floors scare me like a kid
the trees cast shadows like demons
branches scrape the window
the walls are way too shallow
the devil's number is carved in it.
his number's in it
but I've seen
the better half of me
it lies in you, no more inside of me
where have you gone
i can't
i can't keep moving on
with these haunting memories
(chorus)
here i stand
at the door to this hall again
it's sinking deep into my chest the things i did
i'm feeling every single word that i had said
this house is the reason that i couldn't go to bed
i couldn't go to bed
it haunts my dreams
his number is in it
the devils got a grip on me
i will not stand for this
here i stand
at the door to this hall again
it's sinking deep into my chest the things i did
i'm feeling every single word that i had said
this house is the reason that i couldn't go to bed
