i curl up in blankets and clutch my pounding head
i don't dare tip a toe on the ground
and tempt the demons under the bed
with their claws that ****** and eyes that don't see
they wait for me to slip out of the covers
they wait, oh they wait for me
there's monsters out there
there's monsters in the dark
disguised like humans cloaked in pride still waiting to break your heart
so as the floor melts away
and the world turns to ashes
i'll hide in my bed in the same disarray
because the world inside my head is just as scary
