  • Genie let out the bottle
    It is now the witching hour
    Genie let out the bottle
    It is now the witching hour

    Murderers you're murderers
    We are not the same as you

    Genie let out the bottle
    Funny ha ha funny how

    When the walls bend
    When the walls bend
    With your breathing
    With your breathing

    When the walls bend
    When the walls bend
    With your breathing
    With your breathing
    With your breathing

    They will suck you down
    To the other side
    They will suck you down
    To the other side
    They will suck you down
    To the other side
    They will suck you down
    To the other side

    To the shadows blue and red
    Shadows blue and red
    Your alarm bells
    Your alarm bells

    Shadows blue and red
    Shadows blue and red
    Your alarm bells
    Your alarm bells

    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
    They should be ringing
