[Verse 1] Plastic over carpet Duct tape on the door Cheap bulb swinging Like it’s keeping score Polaroids pinned On a rusted nail Every single smile Cut off at the veil Footprints Leading down the stairs Boots in the bleach But the stain still stares Name on the news But you spell it wrong Think you’re safe in the crowd? You won’t be for long [Chorus] Ghost face Serial killers scream Cutting through the quiet of your sweetest dream Woke up But you can’t leave the scene ’cause I’m right here Right here Stuck in your screen Ghost face Serial killers scream Blood-red letters on your movie screen You pray hard But I write the theme And the last word Is your last Little Scream (ah!) [Verse 2] Mask on the mantle Waiting for the night Kitchen knife shining Begging for a fight Breath on the window Fog writes your fate “Don’t look back” But it’s already late Caller ID Just a blocked-out name Ring once Ring twice Then I say your shame You lock all the doors You check every room But the creak in the hallway Hums your tune (hey!) [Chorus] Ghost face Serial killers scream Cutting through the quiet of your sweetest dream Woke up But you can’t leave the scene ’cause I’m right here Right here Stuck in your screen Ghost face Serial killers scream Blood-red letters on your movie screen You pray hard But I write the theme And the last word Is your last Little Scream (scream)
