Verse 1 The welcome mat is frayed and torn Since the day I first was born People enter, laughter thrives Yet shadows linger where pain hides Verse 2 Walls are painted, bright and loud Halls adorned, a joyful crowd Guest rooms waiting, open wide But one room hides what I can’t hide Chorus Locked room at the end of the hall Memories rise, I hear them call Rattling bones and whispered fears Caged inside for endless years Verse 3 Closet back, padlocked tight Secrets screaming in the night Tears and loss, innocence gone Echoes linger, dragging on Bridge Haunting tones, the theremin cries Wails of the past, shadows rise Through the halls of color bright Comes the terror of the night Chorus Locked room at the end of the hall Memories rise, I hear them call Rattling bones and whispered fears Caged inside for endless years Outro Dust and echoes, doors stay closed The house remembers all it knows Skeletons dance in muted gloom Forever trapped within the room
