Dormitory Killings

By TheReap

Don't fall asleep at night
Something's just not feeling right
Lock the windows, lock the doors
Or you'll sleep for ever more
Pull the sheets up to your head
Lying motionless in your bed
You hear footsteps at your door
Now you won't sleep anymore

Dormitory killings, Take you away
Dormitory killings, Take you away

Now you hear the ringing of your phone
Don't you wish that you were not alone
The times a little after four
There is someone knocking at your door
You wish that he would go away
But the killer's here to stay
He's about to break down the door
Cause the psycho's rotten to the core

Dormitory killings, Take you away
Dormitory killings, Take you away

He's coming at you with a knife
He's come to take away your life
He rapes you of your innocence
Against him you have no defense
He leaves your bloody body on the floor
As he makes his way through the door
He managed to make it away all right
To kill another victim some other night

Dormitory killings, Take you away
Dormitory killings, Take you away
