[verse 1] Home alone inside that fortress Feeble lights to ward away the darkness Shadows dance along the hallway Voices whisper can you hear what they say Through the door you hear me breathing Let me in you know I'm really starving For some company I'm lonely Open up that door and come play with me [bridge] Claws and sparks we'll find you in the dark With our metal teeth gnashing And springs and coils smashing Don't look now don't even ask me how What was once a friend's scary He'll stalk you now how dare he [Chorus] Check the closet check the doors Don't have a clue what he's coming for Watch the shadows watch the bed Don't think he'll stop until you are dead [verse 2] Use your ears this lesson's vital Echoes through the dark cue your survival You may think the light will guide you But shine it in my face and I will bite you [bridge] Fangs and maws we'll grasp you in our claws
With our wicked eyes burning Our joints and gears turning It's too late you can't outrun your fate Friendly faces turn frightening Your little chest starts tightening [Chorus] Check the closet check the doors Don't have a clue what he's coming for Watch the shadows watch the bed Don't think he'll stop until you are dead [verse 3] Oh so young why such things would happen Innocence should not be slain Tears remorse for what has been broken Pull the plug this can't happen again Oh so young why such things would happen Innocence should not be slain Tears remorse for what has been broken Pull the plug this can't happen again [Chorus redux] Checked the closet checked the doors Don't have a clue what he came here for Watched the shadows watched the bed He should have stopped before you were Please forgive me I'm sorry! I'm sorry...
