Monsters Lyrics by Mae Krell

Anabasis EP

2016

[Verse 1]
When I was younger I slept on the floor all the time
It wasn't more comfortable than my bed but at least I felt safe that way
When I was younger I slept on the floor all the time
I figured that way if the monsters crept out I would see them

[Pre-Chorus]
But I guess over the years things changed
And the monsters I was ever so scared of
Found their way out from under my bed
And crept straight into my head

[Chorus]
And now I feel them crawling
And now I hear them scream
They’re deep inside my body
And they're becoming me

And now I feel them crawling
And now I hear them scream
They’re deep inside my body
And they're becoming me

[Verse 2]
When i was younger I'd run and I'd scream and I'd hide
Scared that the monsters would catch me and eat me alive
When I was younger I'd laugh and I'd joke and I'd smile
But now there's no one here to turn on the light and scare them away

[Pre-Chorus]
But I guess over the years things changed
And the monsters I was ever so scared of
Found their way out from under my bed
And crept straight into my head

[Chorus]
And now I feel them crawling
And now I hear them scream
They’re deep inside my body
And they're becoming me

And now I feel them crawling
And now I hear them scream
They’re deep inside my body
And they're becoming me

[Bridge]
My body is a cage
Holding me captive
And I'm buried so deep
That my screams sound like whispers

My body is a cage
Holding me captive
And I'm buried so deep
That my screams sound like whispers

And I'm screaming
I'm screaming
My throat is ripped to pieces
Can you hear me calling from down here?
I need your help
I need your hand
I need someone to pull me out of the dark
I've been down here for so long
My eyes have adjusted and I can see clearly now
I've been down here
For so long that it's become like a home to me

[Chorus]
And now I feel them crawling
And now I hear them scream
They're deep inside my body
And they're becoming me

And now I feel them crawling
And now I hear them scream
They're deep inside my body
And they're becoming me
