[Verse 1] Door half closed Hallway cold Breath hangs low Clock runs slow Corner of the room Something moves Not a sound Still It grooves toward you [Chorus] Killer in the dark Draws a blade from the wall Every step you take It just grows tall You can kill the light But you can’t go far You can lock your doors Not your heart From the killer in the dark [Verse 2] Footsteps mine Echo twice Every lie Carved in ice It wears my face Stretched too wide Mouth of smoke Eyes of night inside [Chorus] Killer in the dark Draws a blade from the wall Every step you take It just grows tall You can kill the light But you can’t go far You can lock your doors Not your heart From the killer in the dark [Bridge] It waits When I’m laughing It waits When I pray It feeds Every time I turn away (hey!) [Chorus] Killer in the dark Draws a blade from the wall Every step I take It just grows tall I can kill the light But I can’t go far I can lock my doors Not my heart I am the killer in the dark
