Monsters 가사

I killed my first monster when I was seven years old He melted like butter in my bathroom's sixty-watt bulb Kept a three-cell MagLite from Daddy's workshop drawer Under my pillow and I'd pull it like a sword Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said 'Cause I've learned that the monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed The wolf hunts a hungry man and the devil a lonely heart A minefield of bad decisions lay hidin' in the dark Greed stalks, sickness steals, and pride lays a wicked trap You can't avoid 'em all, no, you gotta trust me on that Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said 'Cause I've learned that the monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed Daddy, check my closet, leave on the bathroom light I smile and say "All clear" when I tuck him in for the night But Daddy, I'm still scared, can I sleep with you instead? I kneel down beside my little man and I bow my head Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said 'Cause I've learned that the monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed I've learned that the monsters ain't underneath the bed
