My Twisted School

[Verse 1]
The hall still knows my name
Under the peeling paint
My locker breathes your fear
When you step too near

The desks are lined in dust
The blackboard turns to rust
I hear your shoes below
You shouldn’t wander slow

[Pre-Chorus]
Come in, come in
The door swings wide
Come in, come in
I’ve got a place to hide

[Chorus]
My twisted school
My twisted school
I keep the lost ones here
My twisted school
My twisted school
You come in, you disappear

(My twisted school)
(My twisted school)

[Verse 2]
I leave a little light
A paper heart in sight
A laugh that sounds like yours
From behind the doors

You follow every sound
I pull the chain down
The windows seal like skin
And then the lesson begins

[Pre-Chorus]
Come in, come in
The bell will ring
Come in, come in
And hear me sing

[Chorus]
My twisted school
My twisted school
I keep the lost ones here
My twisted school
My twisted school
You come in, you disappear

(My twisted school)
(My twisted school)

[Bridge]
I was left in the rain
Now I make the rules
Every breath you take
Feeds my twisted school

So count the steps
And pray for dawn
Once you cross that line
You don’t go home

[Final Chorus]
My twisted school
My twisted school
I keep the lost ones here
My twisted school
My twisted school
You come in, you disappear

My twisted school
My twisted school
The halls all learn your fear
(My twisted school)
(My twisted school)
