Haunted House

we walked this road

twice a day for ten years

but it was just last night when we noticed something strange

three stories tall, two hundred years old

a light in the attic and nothing more

shivers slithered sideways

on our spines

so we all raced home, got under our covers

everything was fine

but next day at 6 pm i received a phone call

hello

hey

hey

hello

and so long

hey do you remember that old house?

how could i forget

well i wanna go back there

okay one condition, we leave tomorrow we head out early in the morning

no, we must go tonight, at midnight

uh-oh

I sighed and hung up the phone

Id never been inside a haunted home

I met the gang right outside the old house

allright whos go first?

was the rallying cry

ill go last

was the resounding reply

*knock knock knock*

well theres nobody home and the front doors locked

but look an open window

uh oh

and the next thing i know we had all crawled into cobwebs darkness and indoor winds

but there's nothing here, no

as i motioned, i realized, there's nothing here

as i motioned to leave something tugged at my sleeve

so i turned around

everyone was gone

im all alone in this awful home...

All alone in a haunted home

I feel the drip drip drip from the marrow of the bone

ghouls lack soul and they're white as ghosts

but the dead can dance more alive than most, and

they twist their head from their shoulders

and shimmy, when it's over.

not alone on a haunted home

I'm a packed in fool with jiggly bones

and then pretty ghoul asked me to dance

should I have escaped and missed my chance

but I said yes and it was nice

I held her close

we're not alone

We're all alone in a haunted home..

I hear the drip drip drip drip...
