We had our monsters under the bed They kept us from the shadows of night From peering in the closet And walking down the hallway Now just disguised as thoughts in our heads They keep us from much uncertainty From peering into our souls And living our days with joy But both paralyze Steal security And gift us sleepless nights Fear has great power It kills and destroys... But only if power is granted

The Monster Named Choice
We had our monsters under the bed They kept us from the shadows of night From peering in the closet And walking down the hallway Now just disguised as thoughts in our heads They keep us from much uncertainty From peering into our souls And living our days with joy But both paralyze Steal security And gift us sleepless nights Fear has great power It kills and destroys... But only if power is granted
