All the kids cried out 'plz stop your scaring me' thats my favourite part

@Mad-ik4fq

My 3 fav Halsey songs are gasoline, ghost, and control. The way her voice changes when she says "god damn right" kills me every time

@janieb.5893

"And I've grown familiar with villains that live in my head
They beg me to write them so they'll never die when I'm dead"
As a writer I am mesmerized by this part, such powerful lyrics. Wow, I just love Halsey's music.

@babyanddragon1527

For those who don’t know, this song is referring to Halsey’s bipolar disorder. So yes, if you guys are getting mental illness vibes from this, now you know.

Kids: "Please stop your scaring me!"
Me: "Am I that ugly?"

@hooshie9850

this song feels like it brings out the worst in people.
it like, pulls you towards something so ... bad.
but its not bad, its sad.


its a sad song, filled with power.
and if you think about it, and think and think and you feel something when you listen to it, you'll know. If you don't, then you don't, but this song and gasoline really represent something completely different.



edit: we all have our own opinions guys, and this song.. idk why but its hard to explain. it does something to the heart, like makes you feel so deeply estranged, abandoned and its like this is what it would sound like to be trapped in your own darkness, you know?


maybe i'm stretching it, maybe not. Just what i think.

The nostalgia this brings back from my childhood hits hard.😢

the first "stop" in this song has me dead.

LYRICS
They send me away to find them a fortune
A chest filled with diamonds and gold
The house was awake, the shadows and monsters
The hallways, they echoed and groaned

I sat alone, in bed till the morning
I'm crying, "They're coming for me"
And I tried to hold these secrets inside me
My mind's like a deadly disease

I'm bigger than my body
I'm colder than this home
I'm meaner than my demons
I'm bigger than these bones

And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
I can't help this awful energy
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Who is in control?

I paced around for hours on empty
I jumped at the slightest of sounds
And I couldn't stand the person inside me
I turned all the mirrors around

I'm bigger than my body
I'm colder than this home
I'm meaner than my demons
I'm bigger than these bones

And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
I can't help this awful energy
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Who is in control?

I'm well acquainted with villains that live in my bed
They beg me to write them so they'll never die when I'm dead
And I've grown familiar with villains that live in my head
They beg me to write them so I'll never die when I'm dead

I'm bigger than my body
I'm colder than this home
I'm meaner than my demons
I'm bigger than these bones

And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
I can't help this awful energy
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Who is in control?

And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
I can't help this awful energy
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Who is in control? ....
