Monsters Lyrics by Jon Caryl

Monsters (Jon Caryl)

2020

[Verse]
I've always been afraid of monsters
So you'd look under my bed
But I don't think that you can help me now
Because they all live in my head

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Cause I've tried everything to be okay
Yeah, I have done it all
And I wish you could still keep me safe
From my own downfall
But soon enough I'll mess it up
Just like everything else
And the scariest of monsters
Is the one I call myself

[Chorus]
It's getting late
You should go home
But secretly I wish you
Don't leave mе alone
It's getting dark
And you can't stay
Cause if you gеt to know me
I'll push you away
And then I'll hurt for it
Even though it wasn't me
It was the monsters
So stay away
From me
Cause I'm the monster

[Verse 2]
I've tried living life in the shadows
So they'd all leave me alone
But the only thing it's taught me
Is they'll follow wherever I go

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Cause I've tried everything to be okay
Yeah, I have done it all
And when things start going my way
I lose all control
Cause we both know I'm way too strong
To ever ask for help
But somehow I'm not strong enough
To ever save myself

[Chorus]
It's getting late
You should go home
But secretly I wish you
Don't leave me alone
It's getting dark
And you can't stay
Cause if you get to know me
I'll push you away
And then I'll hurt for it
Even though it wasn't me
It was the monsters
So stay away
From me
Cause I'm the monster
