Spiders creeping up the wall
Footsteps creaking down the hall
Fingers rapping on the glass
Maybe it will pass...
Rats that scuttle on the floor
Somewhere just beyond the door
A chill that hits you like a wave
Voices groaning from the grave
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark
What's that thumping in the ceiling?
Can it be the walls are breathing?
Something nameless coming nearer
Who's that person in the mirror?
Eyelids twitch and fingers tremble
Apparitions that resemble
Someone seen, in a dream
Will they hear me scream --
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark
So now you know, now you know
so run, just run, get out, just go!
Down the stairs, forget the light
Whatever's there can smell your fright
Feel it reaching right behind you
Clatter down that steps that wind. you
Should have listened, should have known
and never come here all alone
One more flight to reach the door
or never be for evermore
But something's clutching at your sleeve
You don't believe!
You don't believe!
Struggle hard and wrangle free
It's nothing that could ever be
It's nothing that could ever be
It's only something that you see...
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark
