The floating head

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
[Solo : Mike]
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
[Solo : Andy]
Inside my mind nightmares are turning real
Oh inside my mind I can´t control how I feel…
…Or what is real
[Chorus]
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
[Solo : Mike]
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
[Solo : Andy]
Inside my mind nightmares are turning real
Oh inside my mind I can´t control how I feel…
…Or what is real
[Chorus]
