Woke up in the westwing Room number nine Amber sat beside my bed I was holding her hand in mine Whispers coming from the hallway Howling, cawing, a cough Ghosts from the past I couldn't face And just wanted to shake off Something crashed down the corridor I heard a rattling moan Amber said: 'Don't you ever think that you are not alone' Heads up! My legs were weak as we left the room I saw a strange man stare My whole body shaking in distress I felt oh-so-scared Heads up! Don't remember anything You and me, oh my darling We don't need this haunted house Let's spread our wings

Closeted 03:26
Hiding face Broken home In the night No one knows Lusting eyes Scratching claws Closeted No one knows I remember living down here I remember feeling sick I remember letting nobody See I'm different Now this place is deserted Now this place is defaced There is no one left to talk to To me there never was One more night and we'll get out of here One more night and we'll be safe One more night and we will sneak past All the lurking creeps They are hiding in the shadows They are looking for a fix They wanna satisfy their hunger Stalking on their prey I remember being different But there's no 'different' anymore Just you and me and the creeps On our front porch That keep us awake and hiding In the closet Until the sunrise Until it’s safe This is love

Intruders 03:44
There were bodies all over the mall I felt their eyes on me We came across a convenience store I sniffed a rotten breeze Dull moaning while we snuck past Like we were two of them Intruders among the living Or among the dead I felt them closing in I was gonna trip and fall Amber said: 'They won't hurt you Let's go and rob them all' Look at their gazing eyes They are all dead inside We're just looting, dear Felice Looting and then we'll hide There is no shelter anymore In this world, there never was But maybe it's the monsters that fear us Baring our teeth Flexing muscles Creeping in and Cracking knuckles We're the monsters After all we're monsters too

Trapped inside a book That no one ever took Novelties in dust Tales stuck on the shelves Between heaven and hell Conflicts in the dusk I wandered through the halls Bound to free them all Books all over the ground Life designs in the dirt Would they stay unheard? Dipping into distant worlds Who's to say what's real? Layers of conflicted truth All for me to peel Carry what you can take Tyler Durden, Thursday Next Amber, please don't take me back! Dexter Morgan, T. S. Garp Let me stay just where you are Martin Banks and Jay Gatsby This is my reality

The bell rang through the fields Had another hour passed? We had lost track of time So had the voices in the church There were cross beasts with wings Hurtling above our heads Shrieking in archaic tongues Trying to drive us mad They were ready to attack Out for blood, land with smack They were ready to attack Praising a god that turned his back Amber said: 'There is no god And if so, I hate his guts Telling us to obey a law That he himself forgot Ringing bells Cursing spells Throwing shells Go to hell'

Bloodlust 03:02
We had nowhere to hide They were all over town Reveling in lust Hunting us down Teeth long as swords Sharp as knives To suck out our blood And eat us alive Hot blood Sharp teeth All lust No shame Get away On every corner We could smell their breath Their aroused sweat The stench of death After hours of rush Amber tripped and fell They lunged out at her Numb to thrusts and yells Hot blood Sharp teeth All lust No shame Get away She moaned: 'You can still make it out, sweet Felice Don't say good-bye, just leave Run! Run, Felice, just run!'

Aftermath 03:31
There is something truly wounded In clutching who you are When all you're doing day and night Is scratching on your scars There's no future for a person With a snarling past like mine I am guilty of all pleasures But I'm innocent of crime I don't know who has been stabbing But there's gushes on my back Turned around, facing down All the bestial wrecks I've been running all my life Still just my feet are in one piece I'm a complicated fracture I'm a swinish lump of seams I need their howls, I need their cheers I'm so rotten deep inside All by myself I'll calm the noise When it's silent in the night For a secound you have been mulling Over giving havoc a shot Hours later you realised: I'm a screw-up and you're not

Woke up in the westwing Room number nine Through the noise of my nightmares The nurse said: 'Get up, it’s time' Stumbled down the hallway My home for so long Strange people for a strange family I won't ever be gone Heads up! A fella said: 'Dreams and reality They don’t drift too far While you’re battling your own ghosts To become who you already are We're living in a world of beasts It's a rough yet righteous place And don't you now dare telling me You're not part of the race' Heads up! I feel imprisoned in my fantasies I run to my room to lie down We’re all just creeps in a damaged world And the sickest will share the crown Pinch my arms, slap my cheeks Did I trade one dream for another? Did I just wake up? Or did I fall asleep?
