I'll take first watch beneath the bed
Cold ears to hardwood floors and
When you hold your breath
I can hear her pacing footsteps
One eye opened one eye clenched
Could not save me from any of this
You mirror what you see
Too bad you don't see me at all
Can I please go back in time
Before the definition of
Shame and insecurity
Really got a hold of me
Before I gave it space to breathe
It became a monster
Can I please go back in time
Before you made me so afraid of
The love I have inside of me
Reciprocate it honestly
Before you were the enemy
You became the monster
Deep Inside of me
