[Verse 1] You left the latch half-open Now the hall keeps breathing I hear your steps in the floorboards Even when you’re gone [Pre-Chorus] I tried to act like nothing But my skin won’t lie Something in the dark has learned my name And it’s moving closer [Chorus] Don’t turn around Don’t turn around I can’t take one more look Don’t turn around Don’t turn around I know what waits in the hook [Verse 2] Your coat is on the chairback Your glass still has a ring But the room went wrong by degrees Like a hand around my throat [Pre-Chorus] I keep the chain pulled tight Still the metal shakes Every little silence in the house Sounds like it might break [Chorus] Don’t turn around Don’t turn around I can’t take one more look Don’t turn around Don’t turn around I know what waits in the hook [Bridge] Wait— that scrape at the door No, no, no, it’s closer I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe Something’s here I hear it now The lock just hit the frame Please say my name Please say my name [Chorus] Don’t turn around Don’t turn around I can’t take one more look Don’t turn around Don’t turn around I know what waits in the hook
