Eleanor Shore - The Girl Behind the Door Lyrics

We hear each other stopped outside our door

Breathless quiet with your head against the wood
We listen for the sound of shufflin' feet
And hear if you're still awake

On the edge of your bed you sit up straight

Talkin' in your sleep about your fear of being alone
I hear you through this polished wooden door

That separates us now
Close your eyes

Your eyes are fighting a war
With the ghost in your head

You fall away again

Toss and turn inside your own head
Your eyes break form again

You speak a prayer to anyone who cares

Your quiet footsteps echo through this town

While it sleeps you carry the weight of the world
I hear you through this polished wooden door

That separates us now
Close your eyes

Your eyes are fighting a war
With the ghost in your head

Your soul cracks again

On your back is where the world stands

Your have fallen down again

Close your eyes and slowly count to ten

She's coming home
