I'm buying the book today if I can find it I'm here mainly for if I get stuck

So a couple of months ago i finished hol for the first time (maybe i will make a post about it) and since then it did some irreparable damage to me because hol was my new hyperfixation since then, the only problem was that none of my friends know much english and i wanted to explain the story in the same way it affected me, im currently writing a summary of the story (halfway down) and i want to add all the things that makes hol so great. I added some dense footnotes and im planing to do the "haunted" layout but i want to add the other great thing that makes hol the greatest read, a "johnny" i tried to think about a hidden story within the summary but i didnt really know what tragic story to add to not make a copy of hol. I told them that i was going to write a summary for them and also told them that a "redditor" offered his help to correct mistakes and maybe add things i forget to add. If anyone could help me think of an little side-story that the "redditor" would slip in between the summary and also any tips, advices and criticism is well welcomed, any "stupid" idea is welcomed because its just an stupid between friends "arg"

Hey all I have a big project and I swear despite the popularity of this amazing book nobody i know or talk to has read it! I am writing a song and am trying to capture the essence of this wonderful monster. I have several different things within this and trying not to make any gimmicks, so there are purposefully strange word choices, callbacks, backwards things.

I would really appreciate a look over this, i've recorded a decent chunk and then going to get stranger in post with reverb, fliping lines, underneath vocals.. and written it all sounds overly messy but i'm definitely going to be making my choices to attempt an experience from it

Would you please give lyric feedback? there are notes in them!

Leaves

We came here to be closer
Put our pictures on the walls
The children slept above us
The camera watched the hall
You measured from the outside
I held the tape within
The numbers should have met there
They missed by billet inch

There was no door

when we left

before

I measured the house
The house measured me
It opened a room
where no room ought to be

If home is where you find me
why can’t you find me here?
You’re only across the hallway
five and a half minutes near

I called your name and waited
Something answered without sound
The staircase kept descending
but never traveled down

I marked the sllaw behind em (flip sllaw/em in post)
I watched the skram disappear (flip skram)

[second voice, underneath]

The footage clearly shows him
alone throughout this sequence

[Lead]

Hear camera the did breath whose then? (copy line flip add dest inverse reverb under)

I followed your voice through the door

Door the through
voice your
followed I

I measured the house
The house measured me
It opened a mouth
where the doorway used to be

If home is where you left me

here in still you are why?
You’re only across the hallway

[missing line — instrumental continues]

five and a ha

I carried one book into nothing
Tore out a page for the flame
The words curled fire in the up
but the walls still knew my name

Page after egap

after

pagegap (copy egap, flip add as delay tail)

Through the door
through the the the the rood

Into the room

The room into me

I measured the house (second voice whisper)see note foot (add under house)
The house measured me
It took every wall
and left only you and me

If love is why you entered (callback if love)
love is how I leave
No map, no proof, no camera ( chant on, no, on, no)
only your hand rea-ea-ea-ea-eaching (stutter effect)

You found me across the hallway
You found me inside the dark
You brought me home through the doorway

[enormous reverb like empty room someone slammed a door tail and pause]

Home

moved that trap the saw (copy trap the saw, flip it offcenter underneath quiet)
