Midnight at the Farmhouse

Intro

Oh

Yeah

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

Midnight rolling round the farmhouse door

Static humming on the radio dial

The dead are knocking through the floor

Grinning teeth with a rotten smile

Matches struck against a rusted tin

Sweet clouds blooming in the dim gray room

Lock the latch and let the haze begin

Watching monsters march into their doom

Pre-Chorus

Green leaves burning

Slow world turning

Fog in my lungs

Holding my tongue

Chorus

Stumbling in the orchard light

Hungry eyes in the middle of the night

Keep that silver paper rolling tight

While the ghouls are looking for a bite

Looking for a bite

Looking for a bite

Verse 2

Board the window with a heavy pine

Funny how the grass tastes like a dream

Tattered suits standing in a line

Nothing's ever quite the way they seem

I hear them scraping at the garden wall

But I'm drifting through a lavender sea

Let the empire of the wicked fall

This plant is making me feel wild and free

Pre-Chorus

Green leaves burning

Slow world turning

Fog in my lungs

Holding my tongue

Chorus

Stumbling in the orchard light

Hungry eyes in the middle of the night

Keep that silver paper rolling tight

While the ghouls are looking for a bite

Looking for a bite

Looking for a bite

Bridge

Maybe they just want a spark

Shuffling through the lonely dark

Brains and bongs and hollow barks

Feeding pigeons in the local park

Chorus

Stumbling in the orchard light

Hungry eyes in the middle of the night

Keep that silver paper rolling tight

While the ghouls are looking for a bite

Looking for a bite

Looking for a bite

Post-Chorus

Oh oh

Bite

Mm-hmm

Yeah
