Tonight The Veil Is Thin

Verse 1

Lanterns on the porch swing low

Something moving in the fog

I count the shadows one by one

And none of them are mine

Pre-Chorus

I know the knocking isn't wind

I know the mirror isn't clean

And every year it comes again

To find out who I've been

Chorus

Tonight the veil is thin

Tonight they let me in

Tonight the veil is thin

And I am one of them

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, one of them

Oh-oh, one of them

Verse 2

My mother warned me not to stare

At faces floating in the glass

I stared until the glass went bare

And now they know my name

Pre-Chorus

The pumpkins grin like open mouths

The streetlights flicker out of line

I feel the cold move through the house

And settle in my spine

Chorus

Tonight the veil is thin

Tonight they let me in

Tonight the veil is thin

And I am one of them

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, one of them

Oh-oh, one of them

Bridge

Knock knock, who's beneath the sheet

Knock knock, is it you or me

Knock knock, do I dare to see

What's wearing my disguise

Chorus

Tonight the veil is thin

Tonight they let me in

Tonight the veil is thin

And I am one of them

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, one of them

Oh-oh, one of them
