It’s dark in here

It’s dark in here
But only for the camera
I can see what’s in here, oh yes
The shifting, grotesque figures in the air;
The eyes, the eyes, over in the corner
LOOKING
RIGHT
AT
ME-

Turn the lights on and they’re gone
It’s not the same now
But they’ll be back, oh yes
As sure as sunrise
As sure as night falls
Heavy, like that thud – didn’t you hear it?
I’m sure it came from over there.

It’s light in here
FOR NOW
But the dark’ll be back
And I’ll see what’s in here, oh yes
I’ll see.
