Knocking at My Door - Uriah Heep

I heard a sound

There was talking outside my door

I get up, turn on the light

There’s a shadow across my floor

I go outside

Footsteps behind my feet

I turn around, there’s no one there

Just the silence of a street

Oh, the fear of darkness was upon me

Too scared to scream, am I going insane?

They’ve been knocking at my door

They keep coming back for more

I don’t know them but still they come

I’m back inside

There’s nothing there I recognize

I used to dream, but this is real

And it’s killing me inside

I hear a voice

The words are running round my head

I lay down, turn off the light

Is it something that I said

Oh, the fear of darkness was upon me

Too scared to scream, am I going insane?

They’ve been knocking at my door

They keep coming back for more

I don’t know them but still they come

No place for hiding, no place to run

Tell me, when will this nightmare be over?

I begin to fear the sound of my own name

They’ve been knocking at my door

They keep coming back for more

I don’t know them but still they come

No place for hiding, no place to run
