The cursed Music Box in the whispering house on the Hill

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

Up on the hill the house leans low

Windows like eyes that never close

They told me never knock on that crooked door

My brother laughed and climbed the porch

Only his shadow came back down

Pre-Chorus

Tick tick the little gears turn

A music box in an empty room

Play it slow

Play it low

Chorus

Never go up to the house alone

Never answer when the hallway calls

Footsteps counting every stair

And the children sing a lullaby

(Never come back, never come back)

Never go up to the house alone

Post-Chorus

La la la la la

La la la la la

Verse 2

Midnight drips on the broken glass

I heard my name in a voice that cracked

Mama said stay where the lamplight spills

But the hill keeps humming a tune

And the tune knows my name too

Pre-Chorus

Click click the key winds down

Something breathing in the nursery

Don't look back

Don't look down

Chorus

Never go up to the house alone

Never answer when the hallway calls

Footsteps counting every stair

And the children sing a lullaby

(Never come back, never come back)

Never go up to the house alone

Post-Chorus

La la la la la

La la la la la

Bridge

Twelve chimes

Twelve chimes

The accident left no names behind

Twelve chimes

Twelve chimes

And the hill keeps every child it finds

Breakdown

I went up

I went in

Now I hum the song within

Chorus

Never go up to the house alone

Never answer when the hallway calls

Footsteps counting every stair

And the children sing a lullaby

(Never come back, never come back)

Never go up to the house alone

Post-Chorus

La la la la la

La la la la la

La la la la la

La la la la la
