Bump in the Night

dollhouse in the attic
cobwebs beneath the eaves
phantoms in the shadows
and rosary beads

fingers clutching tight
evil spirits out of sight
praying to a ghost
on a foggy winter night

then a creak and thump
and things that go bump
I'm a trembling soul
See me dance, see me jump
from the things
that go bump

the wind whistles and moans
I hear a lost and starving child
who i should let inside
safe from the cold and wild

but I open up the door
and no one is standing there
just an eerie silence
and a bleakness in the air

then a creak and thump
and things that go bump
I'm a trembling soul
See me dance, see me jump
from the things
that go bump
