A Dangerous Illusion

Verse 1/
I was once a little girl,
So safe inside my bed,
Nothing here but what is mine,
And my teddy bear’s,
Feeling safe and comfortable,
When my daddy’s downstairs,
Locks on my door,
And baseball bat,
Underneath my bed.

Bridge/
But you’re the one, who whispers to me,
You’re the one, whose dark,
You’re the one, who shouts at me,
But when I open my eyes,
You’re the one I can’t see.

Chorus/
You’re the demon in my closet,
The shadow I was told didn’t move,
You’re the voice that’s just in my head,
A dangerous illusion,
Go away just go away,
Leave me to dream,
Go to hell yes go to hell,
Stay away from me.

Verse 2/
I said all of my prayers,
But you’re still haunting my head,
I don’t want to close my eyes,
In case I wind up dead,
The carnival in my dream,
Is like a memory,
Swear I’ve been here before,
But I’ve been asleep the whole time.

Bridge/
But you’re the one, who takes me there,
Wondering the streets alone,
You’re the one whose voice I hear,
So high pitched, a dreadful screech.

Chorus/
You’re the demon in my closet,
The shadow I was told didn’t move,
You’re the voice that’s just in my head,
A dangerous illusion,
Go away just go away,
Leave me to dream,
Go to hell yes go to hell,
Stay away from me.

Oh,
I knew you were here all along,
Now you’re turning my world inside out,
Turning my toys into monsters,
I hear the devil shout,
Just go to hell, go back to hell,
Where you started out,
Take your black heart with you now,
Go back to hell, go back to hell.

Chorus/
You’re the demon in my closet,
The shadow I was told didn’t move,
You’re the voice that’s just in my head,
A dangerous illusion,
Go away just go away,
Leave me to dream,
Go to hell yes go to hell,
Stay away from me.

Wow, this is really interesting, wonderful theme!
