This riff Ed plays isnt too audible but its there.



Lyrics:



I am the key to the lock in your house, 
that keeps your toys in the basement, 
and if you get too far inside, 
you'll only see my reflection. 

It's always best when the light is off 
I am the pick in the ice 
do not cry out or hit the alarm, 
we're friends till we die. 

And either way you turn, I'll be there, 
open up your skull, I'll be there, 
climbing up the walls. 

It's always best when the light is off, 
it's always better on the outside, 
fifteen blows to the back of my head, 
fifteen blows to your mind. 

So tuck the kids in safe tonight, 
shut the eyes in the cupboard, 
do not cry out or hit the alarm, 
you'll get the loneliest feeling 

That either way you turn, I'll be there, 
open up your skull, I'll be there, 
climbing up the walls.
