Rose (Monsters Don't Hide Under Your Bed [Reprise])
The monster hidden under my bed chose to lay beside me,
Wearing the face of a man I knew,
Revealing the truth of a sweet dream
β
a bitter nightmare;
Violated.
Dirtied.
Disgusted.
Unfathomable,
To be done by someone whom I'd thought can never do such things.
I will grieve,
I will falter;
But I will not let it eat me.
I shall be the rose both of the beauty and the danger;
I will stand and fight with the power I ought to have;
I will vanquish that very monster:
Without fear,
Without hesitation.
I vow to never let it consume me;
**I am a warrior and I shall forever be!
I just had to write something
I'm sorry if it's the only thing I can do
