lyrics

It calls out to me like I
Sent a signal to the sky
Asking when and where and why
Am I going to die?
X2

It’s following me home
It’s swallowing me whole
It’s easy to see oh
Eyes through a keyhole
Pierce like a needle
It’s easy to see oh
The monster is me

Hi, it’s the monster under your bed
Imaginary creature
I’m the one that's in your head
In your dreams I get a feature
I'm the noise out in the shed
Pulling at your mind like a thread
Never ending animated monotony
You will never be what you wanna be
Never fall asleep never follow me
Being the black sheep never bothered me
Back on your own back to the wall
Only position that you've ever known
You are alone nowhere to roam
Can't even breathe your cover is blown

It calls out to me like I
Sent a signal to the sky
Asking when and where and why
Am I going to die?
X2

It’s following me home
It’s swallowing me whole
The monster is me
Eyes through a keyhole
Pierce like a needle
It’s easy to see oh
The monster is me

It’s following me home
It’s swallowing me whole
It’s easy to see oh
Eyes through a keyhole
Pierce like a needle
It’s easy to see oh
The monster is me
