It could be you…

These halls are quiet now
No footsteps left to echo
It's been this way since
The day we watched you go
There's no marks on my wrists though
From the shackles with which you bound me
It feels strange to be alone now
Somehow I still don't feel free

The lights are off the house is empty
The blinds are drawn the world can't see me
Keep your friends close your enemies closer
I thought that it was finally over
But you're outta sight
Not outta mind
So I lay awake cowering in fright
For every noise I hear in the night
Could be you
It could be you
What's a girl to do?

A king dethroned
A ruler overthrown
In these four walls you called your home
I'm still haunted by your ghost
I suppose in time
I'll sleep at night
Everyone keeps saying I'll be alright

But I'm constantly looking over my shoulder
When someone strikes that fear in your heart
You get the feeling it'll never blow over
What's a girl to do?

When every ring of the telephone
Terrifies me if I'm home alone
You're gone but you still got a hold on me
You left but you're still controlling me

The lights are off the house is empty
The blinds are drawn the world can't see me
Keep your friends close your enemies closer
I thought that it was finally over
But you're outta sight
Not outta mind
So I lay awake cowering in fright
For every noise I hear in the night
Could be you
It could be you
What's a girl to do?

I'm still trapped
I'm still a prisoner in my own home
I have no escape even when the doors are open
And I'm home alone
Coz outside these four walls
No one knows the torture you put us through
No one stops to tell me what a girls to do!

The lights are off the house is empty
The blinds are drawn the world can't see me
Keep your friends close your enemies closer
I thought that it was finally over
But you're outta sight
Not outta mind
So I lay awake cowering in fright
For every noise I hear in the night
Could be you
It could be you

The lights are off but the house isn't empty
I still get the feeling you're in here with me
I kept my friends close my enemies closer
I thought that it'd finally be over
But you're outta sight
Not outta mind
Out of everyone's
But still in mine

So I lay awake
So I lay awake cowering in fright
For every noise I hear tonight
Could be you
It could be you
What's a girl to do?

What's a girl to do?
When it might be you?
