The Floating Head

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Inside my mind, nightmares are turning real Oh, inside my mind, I can't control how I feel [Verse 2] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Inside my mind, nightmares are turning real Oh, inside my mind, I can't control how I feel or what is real [Chorus] 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? [Guitar Solo: Mike Wead] [Verse 3] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Inside my mind, nightmares are turning real Oh, inside my mind, I can't control how I feel or what is real [Bridge] 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 underwater, I'm drowning Ah, ah, ah, I got to breathe Ah, ah, ah, got to break free [Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque] [Pre-Chorus] Inside my mind, nightmares are turning real Oh, inside my mind, I can't control how I feel or what is real [Chorus] 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?
