Off With Your Head

Lyrics

Intro
Yeah...
Step quiet
Don’t blink
Mm-mm
(chop it)
Hear that?
It’s coming

Verse 1
Black coat, cold grin
I move like a rumor
Hallways bend
When I drift through the room, yeah
Finger on the latch
But I never touch twice
Every eye in the dark
Got that fever in it, right?
I seen the frame shake
When the truth got close
Your whole face change
When you know what you know
Crawl in the corners
Leave a mark, then go
And the air get thick
When I say your name low

Pre-Chorus
You can run, but it follows
In the walls, in the hollow
Every thought starts to tremble
When the night gets narrow
Count me out, I’m the echo
In your skull like a warning
Hear the strings start climbing
Something worse in the morning

Chorus
Off with your head
Off with your head
Say it again
Off with your head
You hear that sound?
Off with your head
Off with your head
Don’t look down

Verse 2
Mirror got a crack in it
Split my face in two
One side says “stay calm”
Other side says “run through”
Bootsteps in the attic
But the house stay still
TV on black snow
And the room got chills
I laugh at the panic
Then I choke on the smoke
Every little secret
Got a hand around your throat
You keep checking the corner
I keep living there
You call it a nightmare
I call it repair

Pre-Chorus
You can run, but it follows
In the walls, in the hollow
Every thought starts to tremble
When the night gets narrow
Count me out, I’m the echo
In your skull like a warning
Hear the strings start climbing
Something worse in the morning

Chorus
Off with your head
Off with your head
Say it again
Off with your head
You hear that sound?
Off with your head
Off with your head
Don’t look down

Breakdown
Tick, tick
Hands on the glass
Clip-clipped voices
Coming back fast
Who’s in charge?
Not you, not me
Just a flicker
Then nothing to see
(chop it)
Cut to black
Cut to—

Verse 3
Now the room gets smaller
Like it’s breathing in
Walls lean closer
Let the spiral begin
I hear your name
In a broken refrain
Like a prayer turned sharp
Like a knife in rain
I was born in the static
Raised by the dread
Every door in my mind
Got a sign that said
“Stay away”
But I never obeyed
Now the whole damn night
Got a pulse where I stayed

Bridge
Tell me who’s the monster
When the mask won’t stick
Tell me who you trust now
When the shadows talk sick
If I vanish tonight
Leave my name in red
And if you hear me laughing
It means I’m not dead

Breakdown
No sleep
No peace
Only the crawl
Only the freeze
(ha-ha)
Choke that thought
Break that chain
I’m still here
In your brain

Chorus
Off with your head
Off with your head
Say it again
Off with your head
You hear that sound?
Off with your head
Off with your head
Don’t look down

Outro
Black coat fading
Doorframe split
One last flash
Then the whole thing hits
Off with your head
Off with your head
(chop it)
Yeah...
