WE ALL LIVE WITH MONSTERS
DEEP WITHIN OUR MIND
SOME HAVE EYES AND CLAWS SO LONG
SOME ARE HARD TO FIND
SOME COME OUT
WHEN THE MOON IS SLEEPING
SOME ARE WIDE AWAKE
WHILE THE SUN HAS GONE TO SLEEP
IN YOUR MIND THEY RAPE
THE VERY INNER SANCTUM
THE DEEP
THE HEART
THE CORE
SOME TAKE HALF OF WHAT IT FINDS
OTHERS
THEY TAKE MORE
THE MONSTERS CALL YOU CRYING
WITH AN EERY FAINT HOWL CRY
OTHERS THEY DEMAND YOU LISTEN
WHILE LOOKING IN YOUR EYE
OTHERS THEY COME SLOWLY
CREEPING UP BEHIND
WAITING TO YOUR HALF PAST DEAD
ONLY THEN YOU FIND
THE MOSTERS FROM THE MIND THATS YOURS
OWNS A PART OF YOU
BELIEVE IT OR BELIEVE IT NOT
THESE MOSTERS THEY ARE TRUE
