When we're little we think there's monsters under the bed but as we get older and wiser we see they're all in our head they aren't imaginary, they are us We are the monsters in this world I am the thing that I feared most when I was just a little girl I am the creature lurking in the shadows, the creep on the street the unknown thing in the closet, that always made me lose sleep I am the jaded, the hated, the unjust and unloved I am the freak that our mommas warned us of I am, the impossible, I am the deranged Done all the things that I said I wouldn't, too much to explain Theres a stranger standing in my mirror, she's wearing my face It's like my evil twin killed me, stashed my body n' took my place but I know I'm still in there and I'm kicking and screaming Trying to do good like I wanted but instead I'm a creaton Pleading for someone to save me. I'm hostage to my thoughts, I am prisoner to my past, I am a monster. If the girl from back then could only see me now The disappointment involved how I could even allow Myself to become this person, to take on this role I guess time and decisions can really take their toll, huh? Was such an innocent, it'd be hard to explain To little six year old me how I became this way I couldn't warn her which turns to take I don't know where it went wrong So it's just like hey here's your fate I guess it's how you belong You're a demon, a monster, you're a menace to society You're held back by depression but you're fueled by anxiety The darkness makes you weaker but you hide from the light Because your mind made you fear the things that feel alright The only way to feel good are the things that make you bad People say that you're crazy and that's its all in your head So, they try to throw pills at you but there's no way to cure it You may be a horrible beast but God made you perfect, right?
