Fighting the Monster

Momma's gonna bring her little ones a new life

Gonna make the monster go away

This battle's just a game she hasn't won yet

Watch her seize the day, yeah

Now she's got a crown of iron upon his head

Fears he could turn and break his neck

If he looks upon the kingdom

From which he was banished

Oh whoa oh whoa

She makes it known

The time has come for us to be alone

All alone

She's forming a plan

As fast as she can

The monster would grow

As something we all

Would come to know

Before it would go

Momma holds her hands over her little boy's eyes

So I didn't see the monster's face.

Sometimes she feels she's living in a spinning nightmare

Pleading a hopeless case.

Finally a patch of sunlight amid the clouds.

Been so long under stormy skies.

Finally a break in the darkness

So she could open up my eyes

Oh whoa oh whoa

She makes it known

The time has come for us to be alone

All alone

She's forming a plan

As fast as she can

The monster would grow

As something we all

Would come to know

Before it would go

I hope we can find a way

To put this monster in the ground

I know you'll

Look back at this and say

I can't take back the time I wasn't around

I wasn't around

How do we go on

I thought we were beautiful

But now the smoke is gone and I can see

Oh my God

Well your claws and fangs have ripped us to shreds

But all these scars have made us stronger

While you hang by a thread

And I don't even care who's got the lead

For we are all left to bleed

Yugghhh

I hope we can find a way

To put this monster in the ground

I know you'll

Look back at this and say

I can't take back the time I wasn't around

I wasn't around
