[Intro (haunting whispers)] [Verse 1] Illusions crawl where light won't stay Footsteps echo like the music played Whispers call my name in harmonic despair Is anyone out there? Is anyone there? (as it comes near...I'm filled with fear!) [Chorus] Ghosts in the hallway.. Calling me near... A melody of sorrow I can't un-hear... They sing in the silence (in my ears) They cry out words that are cold... In the afterlife's world... Wonder of what stories unfold? Ghosts in the hallway (I'm cold!) [Verse 2] Windows frost with temptations the questions burn Clock hands ticking but they never turn The air in my lungs feels heavy Like dust and regret (weighing on my soul) pay the Underworld's toll shall I die and let the dark abyss swallow me whole! [Chorus] Ghosts in the hallway.. Calling me near... A melody of sorrow I can't un-hear... They sing in the silence (in my ears) They cry out words that are cold... In the afterlife's world... Wonder of what stories unfold? Ghosts in the hallway (I'm cold!) [Instrumental Soli, Solos] [Verse 3] The mirror cracks but shows no face... Is the world suspended? A timeless place? I reach for the walls but I slip with blood on my hands The line between worlds, A pact written and a line drawn in the the sand [Chorus] Ghosts in the hallway.. Calling me near... A melody of sorrow I can't un-hear... They sing in the silence (in my ears) They cry out words that are cold... In the afterlife's world... Wonder of what stories unfold? Ghosts in the hallway (I'm cold!) [Outro, Big Finish Instrumental] Knocking on doors in an astral hallway Chasing the echoes of what we are and were The ghost is us (it all happened in a blur)
