Convinced it was a giggle

But in reality, a drone

Of the silence in the air

When you're home alone


Thought it was someone breathing

A whisper in my ear,

Turns out it was just the walls

Smothered by my fear


The door is creaking open

Blame it on the wind

Crush down this terror inside me

Soon this all will end


The evanescent mist appears

Thoughts smothered by a cloying scent

Begin to pray to souls above

Fools and sinners must repent


There are really footsteps

Guess you're not alone

The noises you've been hearing

Stem from their restless bones
