lyrics
hiding out in a haunted house
is paralyzing your tongue and mouth
and it's stopping your hand from reaching out
rebuilding a fortress around yourself
with turrets aimed at everyone else
and no one is getting out or getting in
when you pull down the shades, you still peek out
the world sends back arrows of doubt
the tell-tale hearts still beating from within floorboards or your skin
hiding out in a haunted house
is paralyzing your tongue and mouth
it stops you cold from knowing what to say
and the ghosts in your house still know your name
they whisper a hypnagogic refrain
the lights flash up and down in your hallway
if you want to you can stay in all day, haunt the spectres at night
it's all coming back when I can't rule out
the thought that you could tear me down
is paralyzing your tongue and mouth
and it's stopping your hand from reaching out
rebuilding a fortress around yourself
with turrets aimed at everyone else
and no one is getting out or getting in
when you pull down the shades, you still peek out
the world sends back arrows of doubt
the tell-tale hearts still beating from within floorboards or your skin
hiding out in a haunted house
is paralyzing your tongue and mouth
it stops you cold from knowing what to say
and the ghosts in your house still know your name
they whisper a hypnagogic refrain
the lights flash up and down in your hallway
if you want to you can stay in all day, haunt the spectres at night
it's all coming back when I can't rule out
the thought that you could tear me down

Torch Song
by Radiator Hospitalsupported by 28 fans who also own “Hiding Out”
Stumbled across this great band because of Martha the band and I just love their sometimes melancholy garage-sound. Also I like the acoustic songs. I still remember seeing them live in my hometown when they were touring with Erica Freas and asked them for a setlist to have something to remember the great concert. It´s hanging on my wall since that day :)
