Hallowed Songtext
von Driveways

In your eyes

I woke up in a room that I don′t recognize
I see insidious symbols upon the floor
There's a portrait in the corner with the devil′s eyes
I feel it watching me walking towards the door
So I step outside into a corridor
Two hundred seventeen on the doorway across the hall
From behind it plays a melody I've heard before
I try to follow the music until I fall through the floor

Into a room pitch black
I look above at the ceiling I fell through
A pair of sunken eyes look back
They're watching me now, they′ll see me in hell too

I tried to find my way out
You left me here to die
Trapped inside for days now
I saw my death inside your eyes


A shallow grave, a sign
A vindictive mind
Let hallowed places die

I look up and see a candlelight as bright as day
An illuminated glow in the all encompassing black
Over time I see a face appear behind the flame
As soon as I approach it my head is bringing me back to a
Distant dream I had from years ago
Crimson flooded halls and I′m buried beneath the tide
As I'm drowning I can swear I fucking hear it though
Eight notes like a vision in Danny Torrance′s mind

I feel my blood run cold
My lungs fail, I can't seem to yell
A pair of sunken eyes look back
They′re watching me now, they'll see me in hell

I tried to find my way out
You left me here to die
Trapped inside for days now
I saw my death inside your eyes


I push back the hands from my throat
As I run through the dark I can make out a window it′s blistering cold
Moonlight is draped over two hooded silhouettes
They point to the ground
Four withered hands gesture towards an inscription
I can't make it out
But the voice in my head starts to read what was written down

Hold it together and brace for the end
Let go of the pressure and make your descent
October Forever in scarlet you drown
You're over the terror you′re part of it now

I tried to find my way out
You left me here to die
Trapped inside for days now
I saw my death inside your eyes

I′m hoping I can make it out of here alive
I froze when I saw my demise inside your eyes
