How do you do?

I want to rent a room here.

You don't look like someone who belongs here.

What makes you to come here?

This is the best place

I could afford for now.

Some fates

can't be changed.

No matter how hard you struggle,

it's all in vain.

Everything is predestined.

Everything is predestined.

606

Yup!

Better think it throughly first.

Follow me.

I am used to it, no worries.

It has been vacant for a while.

It's a bit smelly

and things aren't very clean.

Could you please not smoke as there is child around?

It's not for me.

You heard that, right?

There's a train passing by outside.

It's quite noisy.

I'm aware that there are trains outside.

The only good thing is that

it's cheap.

There's a laundry room in the basement.

If you need to throw away garbage,

there's a trash bin right by the stairway.

It's quite convenient.

Help yourself.

Don't worry, Don't be afraid.

No one will harm us anymore.

Mom will protect you.

Ya Ya.

I'm going to the laundry room now.

You stay at home and behave well, okay?

You're the new neighbor, right?

I think I haven't seen you before.

I'm Ah Guan.

I live on the eighth floor.

I'm Chen Wei.

I just moved into the sixth floor.

Your palms are so cold.

Sixth floor.

Sixth floor, huh?

You are so bold.

It's been quite a while.

Come and give me a massage.

Alright!

I live on the eighth floor.

I am a massage therapist.

Room 808.

Come up when you have time, I give you a facial treatment.

She lives on the sixth floor.

Let's go now.

Let's go now.

But...

Massage.

Hello?

Hello?

Who are you?

Ya Ya.

Ya Ya.

I'm playing marbles. Do you want to play with me?

I'll go to work first.

Once I'm done with my tasks, I'll play with you, okay?

You are a good kid.

She is not free,

let's continue to play.

Okay?

It's your turn now.

You can see me!

How long do I have to fry this rice?

My legs are numb because I am kneeling so long!

Use your bare hand to stir the rice,

to feed those lonely wandering spirits.

Ah Di, come here.

Put on the eye mask.

I used a new talismans script to calm the spirits down.

Come Ah Di, Come here.

This is god blessed ashes.

Come, take three sips.

Okey.

Thanks, Uncle Shan.

You should already know

Many people in this building died tragically in the previous decades,

especially for those who jumped off the building to commit suicide,

Most of them even don't know there is no reincarnation for those who commit suicide.

Unless they reach the predestined lifespan,

they will remain stucked in the same place,

and continuously repeat jumping-off the building in cycle.

And your child,

is a little bit silly.

And he has the ability to see spirits.

Even if you see something, you should pretend you can't see it.

Don't get yourself into troubles.

Look at him, stupid and absurd.

Fortunately...

You shouldn't say my grandson is stupid and absurd!

If you keep talking nonsense like that,

I will cut loose from all ties, even with you.

I'm not an idiot.

Ah Di, I know that you are not an idiot.

I'm not an idiot.

Deliver two cases of distilled water

to Room 606,

for the newly moved-in lady.

But,

We don't have enough bottles of water.

Have I already told you many times before?

Use the toilet water instead

temporarily.

Did I order so much water?

So many delivered at one time.

Aiya.

What's wrong with you?

I'm fine.

You have to be careful.

I haven't paid you yet.

What's going on?

Then I'll have to give it to him next time.

Hey, Lao Zhao.

If you don't evict your tenants, how can we proceed with urban renewal and redevelopment?

Not really.

People like you

always having issues with earning money.

In this day, if you have the opportunity to make money, you should seize it quickly.

I heard that the woman who just moved in

come here with a child alone.

So what?

Put the kid in daycare center,

or should I offer my seat?

5 Characters.

Hey, Wait!

5 Characters.

Winning!

A hole!

Continue to 4, kill the banker!

Damn, you can win with this kind of hand too?

Go to hell!

Don'r say this word, okay?

It's too sensitive.

Aiya, I heard that someone committed suicide in Room 606 again.

Wait.

Damn, what's this?

It's so dirty. What is this?

Let's move the mahjong table a bit.

Damn it!

Oh shit!

You are winning, Lao Zhao.

Don't be afraid.

Mom will stay with you.

What's happened on you?

Lao Liang, I think I'd better not go this time.

Hey! Hey! Hey!

What kind of person are you?

You don't make money even when you have the opportunity?

No, it's not like that.

Why you still ask me when you already know the answer?

Aiya, Go!

Not even do me a favor.

Please come in.

Hi.

Yaya, come to visit guests.

How comes the water is so dirty?

Possibly because no one has lived here for a long time.

So, even the water pipes are rusted.

How should I address you?

Call me Miss Chen.

Miss Chen,

This child has a more gentle "eight characters".

So, don't let her run around freely.

Don't touch things from unknown origins.

Don't speak recklessly,

this will scare her.

She just moved in here.

Alright!

Okay, nothing, nothing.

What do you do just now?

At least you are a temple carer,

how comes you are so terrified?

You won't be afraid simply because you are ignorance.

Aiya.

The center of your forehead has been darkening recently,

it might be an ominous sign of bloodshed.

So, be cautious.

Pah pah pah!

Don't speak recklessly.

My grandson is about to come back very soon.

I am feeling well.

But,

Aiya.

Lao Liang,

I am telling you the truth.

"Roast pork rice dumplings."

"Roast pork rice dumplings."

"Roast pork rice dumplings."

Does he beat us like father?

I'll cover your ears.

Don't be afraid.

"Roast pork rice dumplings."

Grand Ma,

The one who sold roast pork rice dumplings,

wasn't he already crushed to death by the one who jumped off last time?

"Roast pork rice dumplings."

"Roast pork rice dumplings."

A homicide reported in a Taipei public housing building due to elevator malfunction.

A four-year-old boy named Lin and his mother

were unable to go out due to an elevator malfunction.

Two men went to save him.

However, it was later discovered that

the boy named Lin fell to the bottom of the elevator shaft.

A pram?

The little girl is so adorable!

If my child is found,

it would be like her too.

How do you do? We live on the sixth floor.

Just moved in.

I also live on the same floor.

I am your neighbor. My last name is Li.

Hurry up, okay?

How long do I have to wait?

Stop dilly-dallying.

Hurry up,

What are you dilly-dallying about?

But there's no baby inside the parm, its empty!

Mr. Li.

I'm so sorry.

Not to sleep on top of me!

Why does she keep on saying that I sleep on top of her?

No matter where you come from,

these two people never offended you.

I have already helped you with the salvation ritual,

you should quickly go and reborn.

Hey! Hey! Hey!

Don't stick anything on the wall.

Hurry Up!

Go!

Hey! Hey! Hey!

Who is there?

No! No!

Don't harm her!

If you keep doing this, I won't play with you again.

Ya Ya.

Shiya.

Who are you talking to?

Are you not feeling well?

I take you to the bedroom, let's have a rest.

Okey.

Come.

Let's go.

How do you do?

How do you do?

Is there anything I can help you with?

I forgot to introduce myself.

I am uncle Liang's grandson, Xiao Liang.

My grandfather was sent to the hospital yesterday,

I'm here to substitute for him.

Is he okay? Nothing serious?

He's fine.

Age-related illness only.

Just need to take a rest for few days.

May I ask you for a favor?

Sure, no problem.

The Six Realms of Existence.

The Hungry Ghost.

These patterns

are probably pranks left behind by the previous occupants' children.

Are probably pranks left behind by the previous occupants' children.

No need to worry it so much.

I'll take care of it for you.

This building may be a bit old,

but you should let sunlight

and fresh air in.

My child is more introverted

and doesn't like to go out.

Anyway,

I'm just concerned about the impact and harm to my child.

So you should take your daughter out more often.

Don't stay in your home all the time.

Go out more often.

I think I forgot to give you a glass of water.

Can you give me bottled water?

Bottled water.

Okey.

Thank you.

If everything is okay, I'll leave for now.

No more incense ashes.

There are many more cans of ashes here.

These incense ash will definitely make grandma feel better.

Ah Di!

Grandma, drink the tea quickly.

I hope this glass of tea can make my health better.

So I can accompany you when you growth up.

I live on the eighth floor, room 808.

Come here if you are free.

I help you to do a facial treatment.

"Controlled area / Strictly prohibited"

Anyone here?

Anyone here?

Anyone here? Anyone here?

Hey, may I ask...

What did you just said?

Are you awake?

We found you lost conscious in the elevator.

Be careful.

I took the elevator,

it is malfunctioned, and stucked on the second underground floor.

Second underground floor?

But...

We only got the first underground floor here.

No second underground floor.

I think I have made a mistake.

I'm going to give you a glass of hot water.

You should take a rest.

Are you feeling well?

What's wrong with you?

Nothing serious.

I am just too tired.

This building is just the same as a magnetic field.

It's hard for people who move in to get out.

Everyone needs to numb themselves from time to time.

Please let me know if you need any help.

Oh, you're here.

That's why I couldn't find you.

Son of the bitch!

What happens?

It's an earthquake!

Ah Di! Ah Di! Becareful, come here slowly.

Ah Di!

Ah Di!

Ah Di, Don't run!

Ah Di!

Ah Di!

Ah Di!

Are you okay?

Is everyone okay?

Hey, little girl!

Shiya.

Ya Ya.

Ya Ya.

Ya Ya.

Ya Ya.

What are you doing?

Where do you want to take her?

I haven't done anything!

I found her in the hallway.

She ran out from there.

I don't know what to do.

What's wrong with you?

Don't scare me.

Don't be afraid.

Go away, you're not my mom!

What's wrong with you?

Go away!

You're not my mom!

You're not my mom!

Shiya.

Please don't scare me.

Is everyone okay?

Don't crowd the hallway.

What happens to Shiya?

Look at her.

She's possessed!

She's possessed! She's haunted!

I strongly suggest you

to take your daughter upstairs to the temple

and pray

and let Uncle Shan to help her perform a spirit rebalancing.

"We humbly request."

Shiya, don't be afraid. I am here.

Shiya.

I give you some incense ashes.

You go back and boil it with water, both mild and heavy fire.

Let her drink a little,

she will be fine after a while.

Are you feeling well?

Uncle Shan.

Hold it.

I already told you that room is haunted.

Don't let your child run around.

Be more careful next time, understood?

I got it.

Uncle Shan, thanks so much.

It's my pleasure.

Come on, be careful.

Come on.

Come down.

We're back.

By the way,

how much do I owe you?

No need to pay me back.

Your child looks tired.

You should go inside and take a rest too.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

No.

Hey man, do you smoke?

Ok! I'm sorry.

Have you seen this little girl before?

The girl is with this person, around 5 years old.

None? Never seen her?

Absolutely!

Sorry! Brother Guo!

I'm raising money, and it's almost there.

Give me more time, please!

Okay?

I have taught you before.

Is that right?

Just keep driving,

and crash him down, right?

Make a fake car accident.

Or else,

I remembered you got a little girl?

Yeap! Yeap! Yeap!

You see?

She was taken away by this bitch.

I will find her,

I have bought accident insurance for her.

Children's accident insurance pays out a lot,

I'll use her accident insurance to pay you back.

Ok! Ok! Ok!

Stop it.

Don't tell me such gruesome things.

Don't tell me such gruesome things.

In case you say that I taught you to do it.

It wouldn't be good. I'm not that kind of person.

Right?

Take care.

And,

This time I've made it clear.

You'll know what happens next time, alright?

Here is the cigarettes.

Fuck your grandpa!

Open the door.

Where is the rent?

My husband is not here.

He hasn't come back yet.

Not back yet?

But, wait!

What do you want to do?

I havn't done anything.

You can't keep avoiding to pay the rent.

You need to solve it out eventually.

Don't break in!

Hello, Mr. Landlord.

I'll come back in two days.

The rent must be paid on time.

How are you feeling?

I've lived here for so long,

you're the only one who has ever cared about me.

Thanks.

I just saw it in the basement,

they even left the pram in the trash.

I feel like I haven't even seen the face of that child before.

Perhaps her husband is on a business trip?

I don't know. I'm a little worried.

How comes they even throw away the pram?

You fool, you keep saying you can see ghosts.

I am frightened.

Hey.

What's up?

Bullying him?

Are you feeling well?

Boys should know how to protect ourselves.

Otherwise, you will be bullied by others when you grow up.

Do you understand?

Thank you.

Is your child okay?

Granny, can you give me something to eat?

Hello.

Here is a form from the Health Department

to investigate residents who haven't received vaccinations.

Hello.

What happens?

Because the epidemic has become more serious,

Here is a form from the Health Department

to investigate residents who haven't received vaccinations.

Remember to bring your household certificate when you go.

I lost it when I am moved.

It doesn't matter.

I'll apply for a new one when I have time.

By the way,

Is Shiya home?

I promised her that I would give her a small gift.

Shiya.

Look! Who's looking for you?

Shiya.

I promised to give you one.

Thank you.

This bracelet is for you.

You want to give it to me?

Wow~ Thanks!

The bracelet is so beautiful.

When did you two become so close?

How comes I don't notice that?

I really like kids.

Sorry

for making you spend money on these things.

Don't mention it.

Oh, here you are.

Then why don't you open the door?

Open your door.

Open your door.

This lock counts on you.

You force me to break open the door.

Is your man not here?

Shit! What a loser!

Leave a woman to face everything.

So,

how are we going to settle the rent?

You can't keep refusing to pay the rent forever.

Hello.

Indeed, I am quite flexible.

The rent doesn't necessarily have to be paid in cash.

We can also put it in another way.

Another way, do you understand?

Do you understand?

Well, actually I can take care of you,

Right?

He has been hiding in the toilet all the time?

Well, this kind of...

My husband is not here, and the person in the bathroom is not him.

Shhh!

Let me handle it, okay?

I'll handle it.

Don't open the door.

I advise you not to open the door.

Why does it smell so bad?

Hey, How long you want to hide?

Fuck.

No!

Didn't I tell you not to go inside?

Oh no!

Didn't I tell you not to go inside?

The woman is two months pregnant.

Based on the degree of lividity observed,

the time of death is estimated to be more than 72 hours ago.

According to the evidence,

she was fatally hit on the head with a heavy object.

Don't be haunted.

Miss Chan,

You live opposite to this room,

have you noticed anything strange?

I haven't seen the couple for a long time.

It doesn't matter.

I can find another one.

You think I don't know

you are flirting with people over there?

Filrting with other people!

Where is the child?

Are you insane?

What is the child?

It's all your imagination!

Son of the bitch!

Broken machine.

Close the door please.

Why do you want to linger on this world?

Why don't you want to leave here?

I can chant the sutras for you and help you transcend, so that you can be reborn.

Before the gate of hell is closed,

you should go now.

Or else, you won't be able to leave.

Is that helpful?

This one is very resentful.

It is very fierce.

Don't come close to this place anymore.

The gate of hell is about to close.

See if they'll be locked in here.

Move out as early as you can,

don't stay here.

Go now, go quickly.

Ah Di.

If you see something abnormal,

tell me immediately.

Don't go there.

Don't bother her and everything will be fine.

Shhh!

Ah Di.

Finally we got a chance to sell the house,

not because of something unclean,

and just let the price drops.

God blesses us...

Go!

Go!

Hurry Up, Go!

You should leave when you're full.

Grandma.

Grandma, What's wrong with you?

Grandma.

Grandma, What's wrong with you?

Grandma.

Grandma.

Help!

Help us!

Grandma.

Aunt Sun has a heart attack.

How could this happen?

Ah Di is so pitiful.

Shiya.

You play at here everyday.

Did you take away my things?

Where did the things go?

I have told you not to take away my things.

What is inside this box?

Don't take mom's thing, didn't I told you before?

Mom feels so sorry for you, alright?

Don't cry.

Don't cry.

Come.

Come here.

Come.

I am so sorry.

I am so sorry.

It's all my fault.

All you police officers are the same.

You guys have been looking for her several days but still don't have any progress.

Wait a second.

We'll let you know when we find her.

Don't keep coming here and making a fuss.

Looking for a woman... Looking for a woman...

Which woman will be with you?

Handsome guy.

Handsome guy.

Do you have a lighter?

Thanks.

Who was that young man just left?

You mean that young man?

Yes.

He is the janitor of the haunted Butterfly Mansion

He is the janitor of the haunted Butterfly Mansion

What do you want to do?

I thought I met a relative.

A 72-hour lockdown starts at midnight.

So what should the residents do if we want to come in and out?

This is torturing us!

Please cooperate with us, okey?

Let's all cooperate, alright?

Chief.

So we can't go out at all during this period?

Areas with potential infection risks need to undergo a 72-hour disinfection process.

So, nobody is allowed to enter or leave.

Everyone just back to your home, alright?

No! Chief, you can't say things like that.

The pandemic is severe now.

Please cooperate with us, okey?

Just back to your home.

Please cooperate with us, okey?

Mom and Dad,

Why can't I see you two?

Ah Di.

Grandma was away for the past few days.

Did you eat well?

Ah Di.

Grandma.

Grandma, you are back!

Grandma.

You are back!

Ah Di.

You are back!

Grandma, you are back!

I miss you so much.

Ah Di Grandma.

Grandma.

Good boy.

Don't cry.

Motherfucker, I found you finally.

Fuck you! Why are you here?

I got you finally.

Where are you going, crazy chick?

I miss you so much.

So difficult to find you.

Beat you until you can't give birth anymore.

Don't run away.

Motherfucker!

Shiya.

Shiya.

Shiya.

Shiya.

Shiya.

Motherfucker! Where are you hiding her?

Give the child back to me!

Give her back to me!

I give you one last chance..

I give you one last chance.

Where is Shiya?

Give Shiya back to me!

Not here.

Come with me.

You will be dead if I found her.

Do you want me to find her myself?

Or you give her back to me yourself?

Motherfucker!

Could you please open the door?

I haven't had a proper meal for days. Please!

We are really starving. Yes.

Please. Please.

What are you all doing here?

What are you going to do?

All of you are bad guys.

Don't act likes that.

Go away!

One, Two, Three.

Open the door.

One, Two, Three.

Shiya, Why did you come down here alone?

Where is your mom?

This belongs to me! All of you are bad guys.

Humans are scarier than ghosts.

You've already found a scapegoat.

Why don't you leave now?

You should quickly find someone to start with.

I can't harm people without a good reason.

I won't be able to have a rebirth by then.

That woman on the sixth floor.

She is so pitiful.

Can't you figure it out?

She can't protect herself even.

If you don't go now, you can't go forever.

Do you want me to leave you alone?

I won't leave until you find your scapegoat.

I'm waiting for you.

What a fool.

You will ruin me.

Motherfucker, I will let you die first.

What are you laughing at?

Motherfucker, what are you laughing at?

You were also very kind to me once.

How did we end up in this situation?

It would be better if you didn't start to gamble.

Motherfucker, what are you saying?

Isn't it because you take drugs?

Where is Shiya? Hand her back to me!

What are you doing?

Are you feeling well?

What's wrong with you?

What the fuck? Who are you?

It is none of your business!

Motherfucker!

So quick to have another man?

Dad, don't beat him.

Motherfucker.

Are you still a man? You beat your wife. You beat a woman!

You made them hide in here.

Motherfucker.

She is a drug addict.

She is even not Shiya's mom! Fuck!

She was with me

and kidnapped my child. She is an abductor.

This belongs to me!

Go away!

You all are selfish indeed.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Who pulled it down?

Grandma. Pull up the gate!

Pull up the gate!

Pull it up!

Grandma.

You bastards!

You bully other people like this!

I will make you all not able to die in a natural death!

Grandma.

Grandma.

It is a ghost!

Grandma.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Why?

Why I can't be her mom?

What kind of dad are you?

You tried to drown her!

In order to collect the insurance money, you tried to drown her.

What kind of dad are you?

Why can't I take her away from you?

Why?

Isn't it because you take drugs?

Didn't we live well before?

You forced me to do this. Do you see that?

Son of the bitch!

You are cheated by her.

Motherfucker! Don't run away!

Shiya.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Ah Di.

Grandma won't be able to take care of you

from now on.

Take good care of yourself.

Don't trust other people so easily.

Remember this.

Take good care of yourself.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Grandma.

You two take a break.

I clean my wounds first.

Do you need my help?

I'm fine.

That guy says that you are even not Shiya's mother

and now I know why she never

call you as mom.

Shiya.

Shiya, don't run around.

You hurt me.

You are not Shiya's mom.

Strickly speaking,

You are...

an abductor.

You are not a good woman either.

Who you really are?

Where is uncle Liang?

You are not Uncle Liang's grandson at all.

He thinks that saving me years ago makes him extraordinary.

Not back home after school!

Where were you been?

Let me tell you.

He only loves his grandson.

Treated me like a slave since I was little.

So I made him like everyone else,

shut up forever.

Hey!

Who are you?

After so many years,

Why are you suddenly coming back?

Now that you have discovered everything,

I have nothing more to hide actually.

You

are always nervous.

Do you really think I am interested in you?

It's your daughter indeed.

When did you two become so close?

How comes I doesn't notice that?

I really like kids.

Where else do you want to run?

Shiya is the best kid.

I like you so much.

But you need to behave, okay?

Otherwise, you will be killed by me like other children.

Otherwise, you will be killed by me like other children.

Why are you crying?

Stop crying, Stop crying.

Show your smile to me.

Show your smile.

And you can't grow up.

After you grow up, you will be contaminated by this dirty world.

Shiya, run away quickly.

Help me!

Oh, you are here.

Haven't seen you for a long time.

You committed suicide and wanted to take me with you.

I don't want to do that.

No!

No!

Fortunately, I survived.

Do you know how I have grown up over the years?

Do you know how I have grown up over the years?

That old man

who adopted me,

he abused me.

Do you know that?

He beated me!

It is so painful.

All of these

are because of you.

I will never forgive you.

You deserved this.

Goodbye.

Mom.

Don't block my way.

Get away.

Oh! Both of you are here.

I'll find someone to help.

Shiya.

Where else do you want to run to?

I don't want to do that! I don't want to do that!

I don't want to do that! I don't want to do that!

It's impossible!

It's impossible!

It's impossible!

Not me! Not me!

It's impossible!

Don't enter that door.

Shiya.

Come over here.

Release me!

Release me!

I still have a lot of things left to do.

Shiya, come to dad!

Shiya.

What is that?

What happens?

Shiya.

Dad.

Help us!

Give Shiya to them.

Hsu Kuo-Hui, you rotten man!

You sacrifice your own daughter!

Are you a man?

Give Shiya to them. Act quickly!

Motherfucker.

I don't want to die with you two.

Where are you going?

Hsu Kuo-Hui!

Shiya.

Let's go! Follow me!

You all get out of my way!

Shiya.

Open the door.

I'm so sorry. Could you please open the door for me?

Shiya.

Chen Wei.

Shiya.

Shiya.

Shiya.

Shiya.

Shiya.

I don't want to die!

I'm here.

Shiya.

Give me the kid.

Give me the kid.

Give me the kid.

Fine.

Fine, everything is fine now!

It turns out that dad really doesn't want me.

He doesn't want you

but I wanna be with you.

Mom, don't be scared.

I know you have been protecting me for a long time.

I won't blame you.

You finally called me mom!

Mom!

I am not a good mother.

I ruin everything.

I shouldn't bring you here.

I shouldn't bring you here.

I want the scapegoat!

Give me the kid.

Give me the kid.

Impossible, I won't give you my kid.

If you don't give her to me,

you stay here yourself!

Exchange her!

Don't be afraid.

Don't be afraid.

Exchange her!

Don't be afraid.

Why is there no one around?

Hurry up!

If we don't leave now, it will be too late.

Ya Ya.

You go!

Go!

I don't want to go!

I don't want to leave you, mom!

Stretch your arms.

If you don't leave now, it will be too late! Go Up!

Hurry up!

Exert yourself!

Lift yourself up with strength!

Exert yourself!

Shiya!

Mom!

Mom, I love you!

Mom!

Yaya! Mom!

Shiya!

You've to grow up well.

Promise me to grow up well.

Don't crowd around, please!

Please stop rubbernecking, alright?

Back off.

Please.

Evacuate the crowd.

Take your children and get out of here

immediately.

Don't trust anyone.

It is doomed.

Once you moved in here,

You can't get out.

Here is the

Butterfly Mansion.

Inside a dark Building,

Someone shift,

Restless souls that drift, Travel through birth and death,

The life circle spins, Till the end begins.

A butterfly is caught in the sky,

A butterfly is caught in the sky,

Trapped and turned for who? It turns back to a cursed call,

Temptation in the fall.

Answers blurred and smeared, behind the riddle,

Another yoke to wear, as seasons pass and tear,

Everything fades into the air.

The deeper I sink, the more I ache,

A bitter choice I made,

Like the beast in a cage.

Bloodshot eyes that stare,

A heart too tired to care,

No strength left to break free.

The more I run, the more I'm torn,

A battle lost and worn,

Love turns you into a demon.

In the attic, temptation hides,

Hearts twisted in the tides,

I am awakened but my soul is still lost.
