Resistance House Band - Let You In

A little girl looks through the shutters
She's always keeping watch
She's gotta keep her family safe
She runs into the kitchen
Something's got her nervous
She says come right away
See you stumbling towards us
You're all looking so broken
Can't believe that you're alive
I tell my family to be quiet
But you just keep on shouting
You know that we're inside
And I'll have to turn you away

Cause I know that you're tired and you don't know what to do
And I know that you're frightened that they're coming after you
And I know I could help you but that just doesn't feel safe
Cause I've got a whole family counting on me today
I've got a house to look out for
It seems my hands are tied
I wish the best to you
But I can't let you inside

Desperation turns to anger
And one way or another, you're sure you're breaking through
Tell my family not to listen
To all the awful things you say you're going to do
I assure you that it's hopeless
And countless hordes of zombies couldn't break this barricade
Try to say where the next town is
Maybe you could make it before the daylight starts to fade
But that's your only hope right now

Cause I know that you're tired and you don't know what to do
And I know that you're frightened that they're coming after you
And I know I could help you but that just doesn't feel safe
Cause I've got a whole family counting on me today
I've got a house to look out for
It seems my hands are tied
I wish the best to you
But I can't let you inside

I can see we're not alone now
If you'd only been quieter
They wouldn't have come so soon
Grab my gun and try to cover
But there's no guarantee that I can keep them off of you
Tell my daughter not to look out
But it doesn't make a difference
We can hear it just the same
Finally they leave and all is silent
And all that I can wonder is if anyone escaped
But I don't think it'll matter anyway

Cause I know that you're tired and you don't know what to do
And I know that you're frightened that they're coming after you
And I know I could help you but that just doesn't feel safe
Cause I've got a whole family counting on me today
I've got a house to look out for
It seems my hands are tied
I wish the best to you
But I know that you won't last the night
