They send me away,
To find them a fortune,
A chest filled with diamonds
and gold.

The house was awake with
Shadows and monster.
The hallways they echoed and groaned.

I sat alone in bed till the morning,
I'm crying they're coming for me.
But I couldn't hold these secrets
Inside me, my minds 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 your scaring me.
I can't help this awful energy.
God-damn 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 could 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?
