I never feared the monsters under the bed. What I really had to fear Were the monsters in my head. Every year They told me to just “Let them free.” When the cold hard truth Was that the monster Was me. I never feared the monsters under the bed. What I really had to fear Were the monsters in my head. Slowly killing Slicing my heart Breaking my soul Tearing me apart And maybe someday When I go crazy I’ll slit my throat You’ll miss me Maybe. I never feared the monsters under the bed. What I really had to fear Were the monsters in my head.

In My Head
I never feared the monsters under the bed. What I really had to fear Were the monsters in my head. Every year They told me to just “Let them free.” When the cold hard truth Was that the monster Was me. I never feared the monsters under the bed. What I really had to fear Were the monsters in my head. Slowly killing Slicing my heart Breaking my soul Tearing me apart And maybe someday When I go crazy I’ll slit my throat You’ll miss me Maybe. I never feared the monsters under the bed. What I really had to fear Were the monsters in my head.
