The Boogeyman Lyrics

Everything's gonna be okay

Everything's gonna be fine

Daddy, daddy, please tell me

The Boogeyman is just a dream

Kids, people aren't always what they seem

What they mean and say are often two different things

Some monsters can be good

And some preachers can do the obscene

On which side do I lean? I don't know

My mind's faded like in a dream

Through the waves and the wind though

I tried to stand tall

To lead the flames out the window

Had to risk it all

Cause when the stars are aligned close

Gotta answer the call

For you're the one that the divine chose

Your back's against the wall

But I remember how

How a wise man once said

"Even if the rain won't drop

There's still thunder in my head"

And when I'm lying in my bed

(Don't sleep)

Memories coming up instead

Stuck under my eyelids

Till I end up dead

I can feel my consciousness slip

My thoughts corrupted and sick

On the surface look calm or just strict

But when my eyeballs done flip

My heart's clouding up quick

The storm's lighting up thick

Can't be hiding now

Beast already out

No rewriting the script

Everything's gonna be okay

Everything's gonna be fine

Daddy, daddy, please tell me

The Boogeyman is just a dream

Everything's gonna be okay

Everything's gonna be fine

Daddy, daddy, please tell me

The Boogeyman is just a dream

I know that seasons changed

You've grown and it ain't the same

I sold my soul in exchange

So when I'm on the road to keep you safe

Cause I molded the reasons for your pain

The demons in your brain

(They're mine)

Imprizoned in my shame

I tried to leave it all in vain

Just victimized myself

Repeating patterns like shadows in caverns

Too afraid to get close to the light that burns

Too afraid to rewind to somewhere that hurts

I betrayed my faith and brought down my own curse

In my crusade, I lost you both, that was the worst

Now I'm trying to come back 'fore I'm down with the worms

Losing control

And death taking its toll

Yet assuming my role

I start to feel whole

I'm reaching my goals

First time in a long time that I feel at home

But the beast's still alive

Can't put aside what the future could be

Inside my mind peace hard to find

When I'm still lost at sea

Maybe I should end it all

To finally set you free

Yeah, maybe I should drown

With this Boogeyman inside of me

Everything's gonna be okay

Everything's gonna be fine

Daddy, daddy, please tell me

The Boogeyman is just a dream

Everything's gonna be okay

Everything's gonna be fine

Daddy, daddy, please tell me

The Boogeyman is just a dream

Everything's gonna be okay

Everything's gonna be fine

Daddy, daddy, please tell me

The Boogeyman is just a dream
