[Verse 1]
You led me to a room I'd heard about
Invited me to stay and nose around
I turned over a chest and there poured out
My will to leave
[Verse 2]
I didn't take a visitor for years
The terms of our engagement you made clear
Any other room was mine to share
But not this fantasy
[Chorus]
They're hounding me to death
To say we're through
Won't let me take a breath
Until I do
They're hounding me to death
To say we're through
[Verse 3]
When others caught the scent
To where I'd been
Told me of the danger I was in
I'd nothing to refute
Their warnings with so gave them apathy
[Verse 4]
Running back to you
To those four walls
Safe inside the room behind the lock
Understood I hadn't left at all
And now I'm panicking
[Chorus]
They're hounding me to death
To say we're through
Won't let me take a breath
Until I do
They're hounding me to death
To say we're through
