The Monsters

They told us that there are monsters under our bed

Inside our closets, getting fed


By the nightmares we see

When the doors get locked, turning the key


The monsters are lurking in the shadows

Waiting for the dark

Slowly swallowing the Light

When the clock strikes midnight


The monster under my bed

Waiting to be fed


When you hear a knock from somewhere

Not the door


Turns out it comes from the mirror


A face screaming, pounding so hard

With black eyes and a white dress

A woman her black hair in a big mess


The hands that come from under my bed

Pulling at my covers, waking me


Can't the monsters just let me be?


But what happens when I turn out to be one of them

A monster


And what happens when that woman in the mirror,

was just a reflection of myself, the real me

The one that the world cannot see


Can't the monsters in my head just let me be?
