Monsters

I foster monsters under my bed I brush their hair and make sure they're well fed They feed on lies so I stretch the truth Scream lullabies and tuck them in too I will never give them up They keep me safe I will never give them up They keep all the bad guys at bay They keep all the bad things away Prepare for the worst so the worst stays away Store all the bad thoughts, locked and contained Never be blind, don't close your eyes Never be blindsided Bad only comes when you don't expect I will never give them up They keep me safe I will never give them up They keep all the bad guys at bay They keep all the bad things away I stay wide awake I don't shut my eyes Be wise Think of what's at stake So don't come any closer They'll give you a fright, they'll hunt you tonight, they'll eat you alive I will never give them up They keep me safe I will never give them up I will never give them up They keep me safe I will never give them up I will never give them up They keep me safe I will never give them up I will never give them up They keep me safe I will never give them up I will never give them up They keep me safe I will never give them up They keep all the bad guys at bay They keep all the bad things away They keep all the bad things away
