Something in the Wallsv6

[Intro — low guitar, distant thunder] Don’t turn around. [Verse 1] The porch light flickers, then it dies, A shadow moves where no one lies. The hallway stretches, cold and long, I hear my name inside the song. There’s something breathing in the wall, A slow, wet scrape behind it all. I grip the door, but it won’t budge— The house is listening. The house won’t judge. [Pre-Chorus] My heartbeat pounds like a warning bell, The floorboards groan beneath my feet. I tell myself it’s only the wind— Then something whispers back to me. [Chorus] There’s something in the walls, Something underneath the floor. I hear it crawling closer Every time I lock the door. There’s something in the dark, And it knows just where I hide. I can feel it breathing— I can hear it smile. [Verse 2] The mirror shows a face that’s mine, But it moves a half-beat out of time. A black shape waits beside the stairs; I blink—and now it’s standing there. The radio spits a voice through the snow: “Don’t let it in. Don’t let it know.” But every window starts to shake, And every lock begins to break. [Pre-Chorus] My heartbeat pounds like a warning bell, The ceiling cracks above my head. I hold my breath, I count to ten— Then hear it crawling from my bed. [Chorus] There’s something in the walls, Something underneath the floor. I hear it crawling closer Every time I lock the door. There’s something in the dark, And it knows just where I hide. I can feel it breathing— I can hear it smile. [Bridge — half-time, heavy guitars] No more shadows— No more lies. I see the shape behind its eyes. No more running— No way out. The thing I feared is here now. [Final Chorus] There’s something in the walls, Now it’s breaking through the door. I hear it crawling closer— I can’t hide from it anymore. There’s something in the dark, And it’s standing by my side. I can feel it breathing— I can hear it smile. [Outro — guitars cut to a whisper] The porch light flickers… Then it dies. Something in the mirror Opens its eyes.
