monsters.

Smiles all around

They see me hide

Dug into the ground

No one's on my side

They tell me they are here for me

They tell me I'm okay

Yet no one knows that at night is when I pay

Pay for the secrets dug into my blood

Pay for the secrets that a thousand words hung

Pay for the secrets yet why can't I see?

Don't you understand? There are monsters inside of me!!
