Letra original
<p>Is someone there?
Can you hear me?</p><p>It's always been so silent
I'm all alone at night
Standing by my window
As the hours pass me by</p><p>Sometimes I think someone's here
I see him in the glass
And if he's real, then maybe
Maybe I have a friend at last</p><p>This room is sanctuary
This house is all I know
Locked inside for safety
I've never dared to go</p><p>No one else to play with
Mother is my only friend
She warns me of the outside
The dangers I could never comprehend</p><p>But suddenly he's there
A voice to speak my name
He comes and then he's gone
It's our secret game</p><p>And now he shows me places
I've never seen before
The rooms she's locked and hidden
An unknown name on a forbidden door</p><p>What are you doing down here?
Haven't I told you not to go sneaking around
Who are you talking to?
You'll be sorry if you make another sound</p><p>Take my hand, elijah
And stay the night with me
We'll walk these halls together
There's so much more to see</p><p>In this room she kept from me
I've found another face
Just like mine but different
I see, I took her place</p><p>Memories begin to stir
Is this where I belong?
A shadow growing in my mind
Fed by elijah's song</p><p>Why are you down here?
Haven't I told you to obey
Why can't you just behave yourself?
Why can't you do as I say?</p><p>Speak to me, elijah
Tell me all the things you've seen
Tell me what you've seen
All these images that haunt me
Tell me what do they all mean</p><p>The life you think you know
Is just a cruel game
They took you from your home
And robbed you of your name</p><p>You've got to leave this place
That's why I've come for you
They killed your family
And soon they'll kill you too</p><p>My brother's voice brought tears to my eyes
I understood all the lies
And I knew what must be done
I made my plan
I'd have her blood on my hands</p><p>I'm creeping down the hall
I've got the knife in my hand
Elijah leads me on as I make my stand
Now at the side of the bed
I pray and drive the knife in
But mother screams in rage
As the chase begins</p><p>She hunts me in the night
I see the house catch flame
And rising from their graves
More girls who lost their names</p><p>Now, now is the time
Now you will pay
You took my brother, my family away
This is my reckoning day
What do you have to say?</p><p>How dare you accuse me?
(Because you killed us)
Can't you see how much I loved you
You should have been our daughters
What more could we do?</p><p>The spirits dragged her down into the flames
Where she lies still to this day
(She lies still to this day)
Where she lies still to this day
And I left that fire burning
I felt the fear fade away</p><p>I remember elijah
My brother from a life long gone
Take my hand, elijah
(We'll fly away)
We'll fly away
(We'll fly away)
We'll fly away
We'll fly away into the dawn</p>
