Breath in lungs
Beat in chest
Blink in eye

My first moments
The only moments
I've seen you

The only moments
I'd ever seen you

Until today

You left me
Cold and alone
All my life
And now

Thats how I'll leave you

The sun sets
The moon rises
Off go all the disguises
The masks worn by the monsters are torn
From faces wishing to be born
While the innocents lay asleep in their beds
The monsters sneak inside their heads
Daydreams are gone
Nightmares arise
Monsters form in every shape and size
The children scream
The children cry
They can't succeed
Yet still they try
To diminish the monsters
Destroying their minds

I breathe        because you put air in my lungs
I cry                because you put tears in my ducts
I hurt              because you put pain in my heart

I lived             because you let me

I died              because you took my life
