Dark whispers in the hallway accusations out of bitter mouths
E5 A5 E5 E5 E5
Strange figures in the doorway a dog barks a drunkard's laugh
A5 E5
There's screaming in the kitchen glass breaks just then the lights go out
F#5 E5
Let winter chase butterflies
F#5 E5
Let the child believe in lies

I can't stay here anymore
E5 F#5 A5 A5 A5 A5 E5
