The Monsters Under My Bed

It’s all in your head

He tries to say

Close your eyes

And they go away

So he locked me in

As the night begins

I see the teeth

Behind the smile

Metal ghouls

Haunt this broken child

They followed home

And I’m not alone

Don’t steal the breath

From me tonight

I’m hiding with

No means to fight

There’s someone in the hall

I can’t escape them all

I saw who killed

These twisted souls

They only haunt

The child who knows

Or are they in my head?

The monsters under my bed

It’s just a phase

They call my fear

No one can see

The evil here

A monster killed

And his victims rose

I think they want

To make me pay

For the life

That he took away

I’m not to blame

Still they play this game

Don’t steal the breath

From me tonight

I’m hiding with

No means to fight

There’s someone in the hall

I can’t escape them all

I saw who killed

These twisted souls

They only haunt

The child who knows

Or are they in my head?

The monsters under my bed

I haven’t felt like this before

Nothing seems real anymore

Are they the echoes of his scheme

Or is my mind just losing steam

I’m so

Afraid

Of this feral masquerade

Take me

Take me

Let it end

Don’t steal the breath

From me tonight

I’m hiding with

No means to fight

There’s someone in the hall

I can’t escape them all

I saw who killed

These twisted souls

They only haunt

The child who knows

Or are they in my head?

The monsters under my bed
