Lyrics

This is the story of a girl who is a haunted house
and every night before she goes to bed she has to take a walk
down a really long hallway, with doors on each side
and she has to look in each room as she's passing it by

And every room is haunted by a bad memory
transports her back to a familiar place of misery
still every room and every ghost she visits every night
silently rewatching before she turns off the light

This mind is a haunted house
This mind is a haunted house
Haunted by the ghosts and ghouls of iself
Oh this mind is a haunted house

So traumatic to the tongue that it chooses not to talk
Fear the fear so much that you put it in a box
and put that box up on a shelf,
left there to fester and grow,
and one day you look back and its the one in control

This mind is a haunted house
This mind is a haunted house
Haunted by the ghosts and ghouls of iself
Oh this mind is a haunted house

Oh I gotta get myself out of this place
Oh I gotta get myself out of this place
Oh yeah the pressures coming down on me

She finds a seat among the others, her mind begins to wander off
comparing herself to the wonders that are other people in her eyes
and in her mind she's only a burden on your good time
So she'll slowly show herself out cause she cant ignore her demons lies

Theres a ghost of mine that plays the piano but he only knows one song
I couldn't tell you the name of it, but he plays it all night long
Sometimes I hear it in the day time, playing in the background of my good time
Cause silence is a luxury for those who have somehow dealt with what has traumatized them
And an open wound that was never properly cleaned won't heal correctly
now I cant taste the color of a burnt yellow
and fear on my breath you can smell its stink
