Lyrics

They send me away to find them a fortune A chest filled with diamonds and gold The house was awake With shadows and monsters The hallways, they echoed and groaned I sat alone, in bed 'til the morning And crying, "They're coming for me" And I tried to hold these secrets inside me My mind's like a deadly disease I'm bigger than my body I'm colder than this home I'm meaner than my demons I'm bigger than these bones And all the kids cried out "Please, stop, you're scaring me" I can't help this awful energy Goddamn right, you should be scared of me Who is in control? I paced around for hours on empty I jumped at the slightest of sounds And I couldn't stand the person inside me I turned all the mirrors around I'm bigger than my body I'm colder than this home I'm meaner than my demons I'm bigger than these bones And all the kids cried out "Please, stop, you're scaring me" I can't help this awful energy Goddamn right, you should be scared of me Who is in control? I'm well acquainted With villains that live in my bed They beg me to write them So they'll never die when I'm dead And I've grown familiar With villains that live in my head They beg me to write them So I'll never die when I'm dead I'm bigger than my body I'm colder than this home I'm meaner than my demons I'm bigger than these bones And all the kids cried out "Please, stop, you're scaring me" I can't help this awful energy Goddamn right, you should be scared of me Who is in control? And all the kids cried out "Please, stop, you're scaring me" I can't help this awful energy Goddamn right, you should be scared of me Who is in control?
