Salem
wait
don't walk in the dark
don't wander too far
stay where I can see you
and these walls
were not always ours
and the wind that howls
is the voice of those who linger
the lives that run deep that flow through the walls of this house
of this place are cursed
and damaged too
the dark shapeless arms that grow and reach out to get you
and scratch you
belong to broken hearts that were never loved at all
faith
it won't keep you safe
and the prayers you say
don't hold any water
and the boards of the floors are weak
and when we walk they scream
and the cracks sprout fingers
the lives that run deep that flow through the walls of this house
of this place are cursed
and damaged too
the dark shapeless arms that grow and reach out to get you
and scratch you
belong to broken hearts that were never loved at all
and the face
in the frost of the glass
follows you with her eyes
we're not alone for the winter
don't walk in the dark
don't wander too far
stay where I can see you
and these walls
were not always ours
and the wind that howls
is the voice of those who linger
the lives that run deep that flow through the walls of this house
of this place are cursed
and damaged too
the dark shapeless arms that grow and reach out to get you
and scratch you
belong to broken hearts that were never loved at all
faith
it won't keep you safe
and the prayers you say
don't hold any water
and the boards of the floors are weak
and when we walk they scream
and the cracks sprout fingers
the lives that run deep that flow through the walls of this house
of this place are cursed
and damaged too
the dark shapeless arms that grow and reach out to get you
and scratch you
belong to broken hearts that were never loved at all
and the face
in the frost of the glass
follows you with her eyes
we're not alone for the winter
