The Floating Head Lyrics

I'm in the hallway on the floor

I cannot stand the dark no more

Oh I'm lighting candles everywhere

I try to keep the darkness out of here



Inside my mind nightmares are turning real

Oh inside my mind I can't control how I feel



Now I'm on the second floor

I cannot stand the dark no more

Still I'm lighting candles everywhere

I try to stay awake out of fear



Inside my mind nightmares are turning real

Oh inside my mind I can't control how I feel...



...or what is real

For the pictures in red, they are still in my head

How can I believe in all of the things I see

When there's a floating head outside watching me



The floating head has disappeared

I got to get some water in my face

I turn towards the mirror on the wall

The little sink is filling up, the water's cold



Inside my mind nightmares are turning real

Oh inside my mind I can't control how I feel...



...or what is real

For behind me is the wrinkled head of a woman who's dead

No body, just the head, strong hands around my neck

Forcing me under water, I'm drowning

Ah... ah... ah... I got to breathe

Ah... ah... ah... got to break free



Inside my mind nightmares are turning real

Oh inside my mind I can't control how I feel...



...or what is real
