Every lamp goes thin and bright Every floorboard creaks your heart I buried the truth where the weeds grow cold But you keep coming back, every day And I can't sleep, can't outrun the sight Of you walking me through [Verse 2] Your ring's still stuck in the sink mud Your coat's still hanging by the tree I scrub till my hands go numb and dark But that won't put you back home The neighbors ask why I don't smile then Why I jump at the slam of a door I tell 'em the house is just settling down I don't tell 'em what I knew [Chorus] Room to room! Room to room! I hear you everywhere, I hear you in every room! Thin and pale! Thin and pale! Every light in this house goes thin and pale! Weeds grow high! Weeds grow high! I buried it deep, but it won't stay buried, no! Night by night! Night by night! You come back around, you come back every night! And I can't sleep! Can't outrun the sound! Of you walking me down! [Bridge] Some nights I hear you in the copper drain Some nights in the dogwood bark I catch your shape in the porch bulb glare When the bulb's burned out and black I thought dirt would keep it quiet Thought the ground would keep it still But your silence got a pulse now And it's crawling up the hill [Final Chorus] Room to room! Room to room! I hear you everywhere, I hear you in every room! Thin and pale! Thin and pale! Every light in this house goes thin and pale! Cold mud lies! Cold mud lies! I buried it deep, but it won't stay buried, no! Night by night! Night by night! You come back around, you come back every night! And I can't run! Can't outpace! What I put in the dark that place! No, I can't sleep! Can't outrun the sound! Of you walking me down!
