Haunted House Songtext
von Michelle Creber

A door was shut
The keys were lost, you screamed
And so began the saga titled: Sympathy
The lights are off
You′re scared, why hide the switch then?
'Cause that′s the trick
The door was locked by one of us
Guess who?

You're cryin' "I′m all alone"
"Here′s not a living soul who cares now"
But I am just down the hall
Of this haunted house, and you love that
I can't give up on you, despite the harm you do
A friend is not this worthless


Must be a ghost
Hung in your puppet show
Sewn at the mouth
Role of invisible
Illusions get attention
House is growing
We′re all trophies in her innocent collection

You sell, we buy
The walls reek with your persuasion
You're in distress
For best actress, the Oscar goes to you

Still cryin′ "I'm all alone"
"I need a living soul to care now"
When we are just down the hall
Of this haunted house, had always thought
Maybe her demons are fake
Monsters of makeup and paint
That decorate a sweet nightmare


Must be a ghost
(What do you need of me when you′re never seein' me?)
Hung in your puppet show
(Tangled up in your ties, immobilized)
Sewn at the mouth
(What do you need of me, why you never seein' me?)
Role of invisible
(You′ve written every line, and got ′em memorized)
You're always craving fresh blood
House keeps growing

Quite a shame though, isn′t it?
She has more skulls and dolls
Than humans to have conversations with
Don't pity us
Oh no, we pity her
You know we really cared
Remember why we walked in here
Why′d she have to lock us here?

Now we're just ghosts
Dead in her puppet show
Well, say goodbye to control
You′ve lit all of the matches
Home of poison, and I'm gonna burn it to ashes

(Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait...)
The door was never locked
Of course
Guess I'll just go, then
I′ll miss you
