there's a monster under your bed

he has as big red eyes

he's the one to despise

he is guilt

he is regret

he's there to remind when you are trying to forget

He is loss

yes, he is loss


There's a monster under your bed

yet it's all in your head 

he's the one to blame

when it all goes astray


You try to call

as you endlessly fall

through your mind

you fall behind


There's a monster under your bed

whos a projection of head

In reality he's your brain 

he is shame 

and he is grief 

it all the same

He will wash over you like a wave

His goal is for you to drown

but he's satisfied when you frown


The monster under your bed is not real

it's just what your emotions are and what you feel

it takes some time

but you will heal

the monster does not want you to know that with his big sharp claws and his malicious grin and head

Because of your tears he is well fed

Let him starve
