Monsters

All the monsters in my head

They have nice rooms with big soft beds

With sheets that I picked out for them

They do not want for anything

But still the monsters stay up late

Remind me of the things I hate

About my life, about myself

Another glass of wine will help

Why, why won't anybody go to sleep?

I can hear you when the floorboards creak

I can see your shadow under the door

I give up, I am yours

When you're crawling into bed with me

And you're screaming and you're stopping me sleep

All the things you say are making me weep

Here I am

Here I am

Some time ago I lost control

The monsters know they run the show

I cook for them, I clean for them

I live my goddamn life 'round them

I buy them things, I fetch them stuff

But still it's never quite enough

They want to tear me limb from limb

I think that I might let them

I, I can hear you come along the hall

It's the waiting that's the worst of all

I can see your shadow under the door

I give up, I am yours

When you're crawling into bed with me

And you're screaming and you're stopping me sleep

All the things you say are making me weep

Here I am

I am laying here admitting defeat

Come and get me, I am yours to keep

Don't you know you're gonna die with me?

Here I am

Here I am

Here I am

Here I am

Here I

Come and get me

Come and get me

Come and get me

Here I am...
