In the Walls

The man in the walls,

His eyes point towards the chandelier, that’s a bit odd

I gaze away at the open house for a split second,

Chills shimmer down my body.

His eyes, did they move?

The man in the walls, he’s watching you.

His eyes, they pierce right through the painting.

Staring deeply into your soul.

This isn’t the smartest place to be.
