A Simple Job
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear them call
It was just supposed to be
A simple job
Stay awake, make sure the place
Don't get robbed
Oh, now I need security for me
From the mob
Midnight they come alive
And now I pray to god
I pray to god
I pray they stay away
And that I see another day
I just wanna get away
Before they slay
But now I know I'm
All alone
In front of glowing screens
Battery's dying, I'd be lying
If I said I didn't want to scream
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
I can't fight back
I lack an attack
So the doors stay shut
And the camera tracks
Everything except my back
Where my hair stands up
As I hear them laugh
I see their grins
And I know I'm in
A situation I'll never win
I ask myself a simple question
How much does this pay again
The battery's dead
And the lights go dark
I try to quiet my
Beating heart
Trying not to fall apart
But they make fear a work of art
Just as I prepare to die
The clock strikes six
And I'm alive
Well that was fun
For night number one
How will I make it to five
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear them call
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear them call
It was just supposed to be
A simple job
Stay awake, make sure the place
Don't get robbed
Oh, now I need security for me
From the mob
Midnight they come alive
And now I pray to god
I pray to god
I pray they stay away
And that I see another day
I just wanna get away
Before they slay
But now I know I'm
All alone
In front of glowing screens
Battery's dying, I'd be lying
If I said I didn't want to scream
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
I can't fight back
I lack an attack
So the doors stay shut
And the camera tracks
Everything except my back
Where my hair stands up
As I hear them laugh
I see their grins
And I know I'm in
A situation I'll never win
I ask myself a simple question
How much does this pay again

And the lights go dark

How will I make it to five
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear them call
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
They're in the halls
They're in the walls
They're waking up and I can
Hear their calls
