The time it was a quarter to twelve And I thought I'd had a heart attack My face is cold and covered with sweat And the skin is pulling off my back I'm having sleepless nights With these things running through my mind I know I should have stayed at home
Is it a dream that I saw Or was it a ghost walking through the door Is this the last time I'll ever be seen In one piece?
The nights are full of howling screams And the window panes are full of cracks The ceiling's getting closer to me And there's creatures biting at my neck It was a sleepless night With these things running through my mind I know I should have stayed at home
Was it a scream that I heard Or was it the wind blowing down the stair Is this the last time I'll ever be seen In one piece?
