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
