Feel It In the Dark

​[Intro]
(Creepy synth bell melody, pulsing bassline, heavy 80s gated snare drums)
(Voice whisper effect: "Is anyone there?")
​[Verse 1 - Lead Vocal]
Midnight clock strikes on the wall,
Footsteps echo down the hall.
I check the locks, I turn the key,
So why’s the room so cold to me?
I glance around, the curtains sway,
There ain't no wind outside today.
​[Pre-Chorus - Lead Vocal & Trio FX]
My heart is racing, the lights go low,
(Trio background chant: Low... low... low...)
There’s something standing in the shadow!
​[Chorus - Trio Vocals (Harmonies)]
Oh, I can feel it in the dark tonight!
Somebody's watching, out of sight!
Every corner, every room,
Living inside this haunted gloom!
Yeah, I can feel it in the dark tonight,
We’re running out of light!
​[Verse 2 - Lead Vocal]
I turn the television on,
The picture static, screen is gone.
A silhouette across the floor,
It's creeping closer to the door.
I pull the sheets up over my head,
Is it a phantom under my bed?
​[Chorus - Trio Vocals (Harmonies)]
Oh, I can feel it in the dark tonight!
Somebody's watching, out of sight!
Every corner, every room,
Living inside this haunted gloom!
Yeah, I can feel it in the dark tonight,
We’re running out of light!
​[Bridge - Lead Vocal & Trio Counter-Melody]
(Lead)
Who’s in the shadows? Who’s at the gate?
(Trio)
You better run now, before it's too late!
(Lead)
I hear a whisper calling my name...
(Trio)
You'll never escape from the Halloween game!
​[Guitar & Synth Solo]
(Driving 80s chorus-drenched electric guitar solo mixed with pulsing synth leads)
​[Chorus - Trio Vocals (Full Power)]
Oh, I can feel it in the dark tonight!
Somebody's watching, out of sight!
Every corner, every room,
Living inside this haunted gloom!
Yeah, I can feel it in the dark tonight,
We’re running out of light!
​[Outro]
(Synths fading out, heavy drum fills)
(Trio echoing fading chant)
Out of sight... out of light...
Somebody's watching...
(Final creepy synth chord fade)
