I hear the doorbell ring and suddenly the panic takes me
The sound so ominously tearing through the silence
I cannot move, I’m standing
Numb and frozen
Among the things I love so dearly
The books, the paintings and the furniture
Help me

The signal’s sounding once again and someone tries the door-knob
None of my friends would be so stupidly impatient
And they don’t dare to come here
Anymore now
But how I loved our secret meetings
We talked and talked in quiet voices
Smiling

Now I hear them moving
Muffled noises coming through the door
I feel I’m
Crackin’ up
Voices growing louder, irritation building
And I’m close to fainting
Crackin’ up
They must know by now I’m in here trembling
In a terror evergrowing
Crackin’ up
My whole world is falling, going crazy
There is no escaping now, I’m
Crackin’ up

These walls have witnessed all the anguish of humiliation
And seen the hope of freedom glow in shining faces
And now they’ve come to take me
Come to break me
And yet it isn’t unexpected
I have been waiting for these visitors
Help me

Now I hear them moving
Muffled noises coming through the door
I feel I’m
Crackin’ up
Voices growing louder, irritation building
And I’m close to fainting
Crackin’ up
They must know by now I’m in here trembling
In a terror evergrowing
Crackin’ up
My whole world is falling, going crazy
There is no escaping now, I’m
Crackin’ up

Now I hear them moving
Muffled noises coming through the door
I feel I’m
Crackin’ up
Voices growing louder, irritation building
And I’m close to fainting

Crackin’ up (I have been waiting for these visitors)
They must know by now I’m in here trembling
In a terror evergrowing

Crackin’ up (I have been waiting for these visitors)
My whole world is falling, going crazy
There is no escaping now, I’m

Crackin’ up (I have been waiting for these visitors)
Now I hear them moving
Muffled noises coming through the door
I feel I’m

Crackin’ up (I have been waiting for these visitors)
Voices growing louder, irritation building
And I’m close to fainting

Crackin’ up (I have been waiting for these visitors)
They must know by now I’m in here trembling
In a terror ever growing

Crackin’ up (I have been waiting for these visitors)
My whole world is falling, going crazy
There is no escaping now, I’m
Crackin’ up

I am an avid Mac-user, nerd, musician, freelancer, and gamer. Ask me about my collection of M:TG cards! I've also got a horrible habit of needing the absolute newest technological wonder, whether it's stable or not. If they made a home-version of the LHC, I'd have 2. Additionally, I've been playing music for the better part of 14 years. I'm self-taught on piano, guitar, trumpet, trombone, sax, clarinet, bass, drums and other percussion, and around 10 other instruments. I also spend quite a bit of time dabbling in synthesizers, sequencers, and samplers. I'm also founder of Quotelicious where I collect and share the quotes I love.
