scratchingatthewalls Lyrics

Why is this decay the way it's always gotta be?

Faces in the shadows wanna look like me

I'm scared. Turned off. Hear them scratching at the walls

I can't get to sleep, reverberation in the hall

Twitching, eyes closed, feel a finger on my neck

Hands over ears, they want to force me to have sex

Sweating in the shade as I'm counting down the clock

The hours start to slow then come to a sudden

Stop what you're doing, it's a five-alarm sound

Wading through the dark hour, wanna see me struck down

Click-clack on enamel, feel 'em pulling at my teeth

Snip-snap on my sinew feel 'em crawl on top of me

(What the fuck?)

She's a rat getting starved in the corner

(So what?)

She's gonna burn don't even waste your time to mourn her

(I feel it)

No you don't or you'd fucking hate yourself

(Oh my god)

What's that figure lurking right behind the shelf?
