Pen Paper Guitar

 5. house of mirrors

House of Mirrors show, scrambled me
Anatomically to show me what’s inside
And though the walls are gone, I still here the same old song
Been playing now so long, I can’t turn it off

Like a shotgun to my head
I just heard the words you said
All lined up and their staring back at me

Walking in this home, 20 years now old
I still feel cold this corner with a view
When the screaming fills the air once again,
Its screaming in my head, I can’t turn it off

Fall asleep with me, so I don’t have to be
Woken up by dreams, that leave me all alone
Keep the nightlight on still in my sleep
My monsters cover me, can’t chase them away

Something underneath my bed
Something inside the walls
Something underneath the staircase here in my house, in my house

Something underneath my bed
Something in what you said
That’s keeping me alive and its only you, its only you tonight
