One True Thing Monster lyrics

I'm not so sure how I feel inside these days
It seems I'm slipping further into the black and gray
My only way to escape, the only way to breathe
Is to retreat into my dreams

I'm not sure how I feel
I'm not certain it's real
I don't know if you need to know

I am the monster beneath your bed
I am the skeleton in every closet
I am the things you hide so no one can see
Those are the things that make up me

I thought I'd figure things out while I was gone
Instead I realized that I am just more alone
I don't need this disappointment
Not guessing who is to blame
Let me go home, and face my shame

I'm not sure how I feel
I'm not certain it's real
I don't know if you need to know

I can hear when you pray
But it won't let me stay

And I think you already know

I am the monster beneath your bed
I am the skeleton in every closet
I am the things you hide so no one can see
Those are the things that make up me

I'm too strong for my own good
Now I've build all these walls
And I can't get out
I'm too strong for my own good
Now I've build all these walls
And I can't get out

I'm not sure how I feel
I'm not certain it's real
I don't know if you need to know

I am the monster beneath your bed
I am the skeleton in every closet
I am the things you hide
You know you can't hide
Those are the things that make up me
