I'm stuck in the house
That once belonged to you
I'm stuck in the house
Lost without myself
I'm stuck in the house
Don’t know where I’m goin' to
I'm stuck in the house
Dust upon the shelf
The pale moon's standing still
Frozen on the ridge
The stars tiptoe to their ancestral places
The books on the walls
Dream ominous dreams
And armies of shadows
Are walking off their pages
I’m stuck in the house
That once belonged to you
I’m stuck in the house
Lost without myself
I’m stuck in the house
Don’t know where I’m goin' to
I’m stuck in the house
Dust upon the shelf
The names and numbers
Grow meaningless in my mind
Patterns disintegrate
On the black surface of night
And since the moon arose
She swallowed all memories
Insatiable hunger she bears
That never will cease
Ooo I'm stuck in the house
Stuck in the house
Stuck in the house
Stuck in the house
Always
I’m going now
There's nothing left to do
The door closes behind me
The moon had her fill too
The night turns itself over
Into a newborn day
The key's under the doormat
For the next who comes to stay
He's stuck in the house
That once belonged to you
Stuck in the house
Lost without himself
Oh he's stuck in the house
(stuck in the house)
Don’t know what he will do
He's stuck in the house
Dust upon the shelf
(stuck in the house)
Stuck in the house
(The names and numbers)
That once belonged to you
(Patterns disintegrate)
Stuck in the house
(On the black surface of night)
And since the moon arose
(He's stuck in the house)
She swallowed all memories
(Don't know what he will do)
Insatiable hunger she bears
(He's stuck in the house)
That never will cease
And I wonder
Leaving from there was always so sad
Always
