Every other plan that you've made has led to nothing more
Than a black battered heart bleeding dry on a cold cellar floor
Now your curtains are drawn and you're not taking calls
You've fitted new locks and you've reinforced walls
And if they get through all that they'll just find that there's nobody home
And it's tough to resist when they're trying so hard to get in
Through your flesh to your bones under rapidly thickening skin
Now your doorbell won't sound and your phone's off the hook
There's a sign on the door if they'd just care to look
And if they get through all that they'll just find that there' nobody home
There's nobody home
Nobody home
Nobody home
Nobody home
If they get through all that they'll just find that there's nobody home
Now your home is a shell 'cause all of your things have been sold
And the fire's died out, yeah it's kept rea**uringly cold
Compa**ion's worn out, spirit's thin on the ground
With an ear to the door you still can't hear a sound
If they get through all that they'll just find that there's nobody home
There's nobody home
Nobody home
Nobody home
Nobody home
If they get through all that they'll just find that there's nobody home
