Friday night, six of us left town to go camping No signal left by the time we reached the lake Ichi packed the cooler, Joe brought the tents Jazzy had us laughing before the fire was lit Myria found a trail that led down to the lake Firebird said, “This place gives me the creeps” I laughed, turned the music up and started dancing We didn't take him seriously Something moved behind the trees Too far back for us to see We blamed the wind And let it go At Lake Hollow You don’t hear it coming You just notice someone’s gone At Lake Hollow Someone’s moving through the trees Every time we look, there’s nobody there We all came out here together Six of us around the fire None of us knew then How many make it out of Lake Hollow Firebird went back to the car Said he left his jacket in the back Twenty minutes passed, then thirty more Joe grabbed a light and went to look for him We kept telling ourselves they were messing around Trying to scare us, trying to be funny Then we heard Joe yell somewhere in the woods One time Then nothing Ichi killed the music Jazzy stood up slow I said, “Where’s Myria?” Nobody knew At Lake Hollow You don’t hear it coming You just notice someone’s gone At Lake Hollow Someone’s moving through the trees Every time we look, there’s nobody there We came here together Six names around the fire Now three of them are missing And nobody’s laughing now Myria’s flashlight was lying by the dock Still on, pointed straight across the water Her shoes were there beside the steps But Myria wasn’t anywhere Jazzy started crying Ichi tried the car I kept watching the tree line The engine turned But it wouldn’t start Then somewhere past the headlights A branch broke in the dark Don’t split up Don’t go looking Don’t split up Don’t go looking Don’t answer when you hear your name Stay by the fire Stay where I can see you Don’t go where you can’t see One step Then another Something moving past the light Three of us left And a whole lot of night At Lake Hollow You don’t hear it coming You just notice someone’s gone At Lake Hollow Someone’s moving through the trees And now we know we weren’t alone We came here together Six names around the fire Now Ichi, Jazzy and me Are trying to make it out alive At Lake Hollow At Lake Hollow The fire was still burning The sun was coming up The woods had finally gone quiet We thought we made it through the night...
