Chorus Close the door and turn the lights low Take a second take life slow Listen to the sirens in the night's glow Insidie my room
Close your eyes and let time stop Unwind and let your mind pop And just smile while the bomb drop Inside my room
i got 4 walls around a 12 foot kingdom it's where my heart's at, it's where i sing from my land where my fates are smilin, come on in and i'll grant you asylum posters on the wall anounce a better way pictures on the shelf recall a better day the monster in the closet turned out to be a friend of mine so now it's cool we're tight, i mean we're hangin' out like all the time coast to coast i'm known to roam renouned mostly for nouns and verbs as i spit sound and my flights of fantasy race round reality chase down insanity here where i hit ground and it's bound to be almost profound to me to be sound asleep beneath my roof, between my sheets it makes me pause, count blessings, learn lessons stop stressin' for a second, then i get back to busy streets
CHORUS
Here it is the island where I spent my punishment Where Boogie monsters boogied Where the wild things came and went I spend a thousand million hours in my winter's discontent Staring out at flowers, during April showers But now the door is mine to open or to close as I see fit A fort for all my treasures walls to things that don't mean shit I elevate my state here when I see my life in pits And I've got lip shaped pillows so I'm always being kissed We held our secret meetings here Belted out the beatings here To get the help to find myself I'm be myself retreating here We speak a secret greeting here so only friends can pass A moat to all my troubles and them I'm free at last I'm the dj on the tables, I'm the mc on the mic I'm the guy that rocks the solo and the hand that brings the light I'm the tears upon my pillow and the frog that sings in spite Because the things that come in here are only things I like
