The Monster Within
The monster within There's a shadow in my thoughts, A beast I cannot flee, It whispers in the silence, This monster in my mind.
It grows at every memory,
Turns dreams to darkest night,
I feel it in my veins,
Its claws grip tight.
A reflection in the mirror,
A face I recognize,
But behind these ever of mine,
The monster quietly lies.
I wear a smile by daylight And walk a careful line, But when the night surmounds me, The monster's voice is mine.
It feeds on all my worries,
And grows from every fear,
I try to lock it deep away,
But Still, its always rear.
Am I the cage, the keeper
Or the beast keeper, that hides inside?
the answer's last within me,
Where the monster and I collide...
