I've always been afraid of monsters So you'd look under my bed But I don't think that you can help me now Because they all live in my head 'Cause I've tried everything to be okay, yeah, I have done it all And I wish you could still keep me safe from my own downfall But soon enough, I'll mess it up just like everything else And the scariest of monsters is the one I call myself It's getting late You should go home But secretly I wish you don't leave me alone It's getting dark And you can't stay 'Cause if you get to know me I'll push you away And then I'll hurt for it Even though it wasn't me, it was the monsters So stay away from me 'Cause I'm the monster I've tried living live in the shadows So they'd all leave me alone But the only thing it's taught me Is they'll follow wherever I go 'Cause I've tried everything to be okay, yeah, I have done it all And when things start going my way, I lose all control 'Cause we both know I'm way too strong to ever ask for help But somehow I'm not strong enough to ever save myself It's getting late You should go home But secretly I wish you don't leave me alone It's getting dark And you can't stay 'Cause if you get to know me I'll push you away And then I'll hurt for it Even though it wasn't me, it was the monsters So stay away from me 'Cause I'm the monster
