I'm riding through the night, a friend has called me
I see the moonless sky, the stars shine bright
The house before me, fog hangs over
I'm standing there alone in the dark
I ring the bell
He opens the door
He looks like death
No shadow on the floor
It seems life's gone out of his body
And madness has now taken control
Pale and grey
A weird mind
His sister is dead
And I'm so blind
Deep in the house
She's lying there
This bird of happiness
With long black hair
[Chorus:]
Silent screams out of the distance
It seems the walls would talk to me
Whispering voices out of the grave
It seems the house can't set me free
Horror running through my veins
As I see my friend going insane
Pale and grey
He's standing there
Scratching and moaning,
Disturbing the air
He knows that he buried his sister alive
But as he sees her he knows that he'll die
[Chorus:]
Silent screams out of the distance
It seems the walls would talk to me
Whispering voices out of the grave
It seems the house can't set me free
And it's burning...

You know the house down the street
Where the kids are
and every day
They seem to have a new scar
Something strange is going on
and everybody knows
Doors always shut
and windows always closed
The little girl had a burn
The boy was black and blue
They said it came from play
You know that shit ain't true
The boy's arm's broke
girl is scared to speak
Their parents drink all day
Couple of dead beats
Some days they go to school,
and other days they might
It's hard to stay awake
after you cry all night
You see 'em every day
Tear tracks on their cheeks
But they will never tell
It goes on weeks and weeks
(But what can they do?
They're only children man!)
You ain't no fuckin' kid
Acting like you give a damn!
Won't someone save these kids
Do something, call a cop

(Hofstede/Kloet/Stips - Hofstede)
I spent some time alone
In an old country home
Where the wallpaper looked like a landscape
In a foreign land
I took some walks alone
Around this old country home
And the landscape looked like the wallpaper
Time's slipping away
Time's slipping away
Time's slipping away
In the rooms of this home
I saw the pictures of the family still young

Who is in that house?
I opened the door to see
Who is up the stairs?
I’m walking up foolishly
And at the end of the hall was a door
And I got pulled in by a sound
But I wish I’d never found
In the privacy of your own room
Where flowers in the wallpaper bloom
Where I just don’t understand
In the privacy of your room
Look away now, look away now
At the moon
Is somebody watching me?
You really shouldn’t see
Why did you climb that last stair
You found me unaware
What I’m doing now it’s my own
And I don’t want it to be known
And it has to just remain
In the privacy of my own room
Where flowers in the wallpaper bloom
Where you just don’t understand
In the privacy of my room
Look away now, look away now
At the moon
Puzzle me now with mystery clothes
These apples I love, these apples I loath
And always forgive the future to come

Candles in the window,
shadows painting the ceiling,
gazing at the fire glow,
feeling that gingerbread feeling.
Precious moments,
special people,
happy faces,
I can see.
Somewhere in my mem'ry,
Christmas joys all around me,
living in my mem'ry,
all of the music,
all of the magic,

I don't think that I can stay
In the old house anymore
There's to many memories
Things live there no eyes can see
In the garden there's
No flowers ever grow there
The house is where I live
A place to take but not to give
Close the door
Did you not see the colours
Climbing up the window
Nor hitch a ride with Lucy
To see marshmallow skies
It starts to rain
But i can't find the rainbow
I leave the house
But there's nowhere to go
No one ever seems to call
The house must be too far away
I wish for yesterday
And all the things I had to say
I pack a suitcase and
Lock the door behind me
The house is better left
Without its heart it stands bereft
