I remember jumping into my bed at night
In fear of the monsters beneath
I never knew what they looked like
But they had a voice
There were two of them
They would bully eachother
And blame eachother for not catching me that night

Every child had a monster under their bed
But where did they come from?
We never knew
WeΒ Β only knew that they were there.

Have you ever thought that maybe we put the monsters there ourselves?
That they were left over guilt and lies
Maybe we took the monster from inside us and placed it there to hide from the world
But in doing so we only taunted ourselves more.
If we can get ride of those monsters can we finally sleep?
