Monsters Under Your Bed

The dawn of light, the vivid memories A shadow of darkness for your mind to see You see your reflection, the blood on your hands Sobbing in despair, a forsaken peace What you thought was the past is now your future Every step you take seems to guide you further When you close your eyes, you feel this crawling guilt The fear of childhood nightmares within your sleep Staying awake, just staring at the walls Eyes are giving in, falling into your dream As light disappears, something crawls on your skin This chilling sensation of knives sinking in As you're laying in your bed You hear the voices of the dead The visions in your head Are the monsters under your bed The frightening shrills, heart pounding inside your chest Pushed against the wall, mirror smeared with your blood The sound of scratching messes with your brain Try to make it stop, there's no numbing the pain As you're laying in your bed You hear the voices of the dead The visions in your head Are the monsters under your bed As you wait for light to shed You fear the shadows of the dead The whispers in your head Are the monsters under your bed Drowning into the night, lungs gasping for air Inhaling burning ashes, like a knife to your throat As your body collapses, think of all your sins Cause your darkest torments are the monsters within
