Monster

Gave you up long ago
 But what if I need you again?
 What if I need you again?
 It's like the door will never close
 It's hard not walking in
 Hard not walking in
 Peace never finds me when I'm falling asleep
 Guess I'm afraid of the dark inside of me
 There's a monster underneath my bed
 And he pours nightmares inside my head
 Keep your friends close and your enemies closer
 Everyone thinks I'm stronger, but there's a monster
 Underneath my bed
 Ever since you passed away
 I got a bottle with your name
 Save it for a rainy day
 And Lord, I swear I don't want to break
 But I could use a taste
 I guess things never change
 Peace never finds me when I'm falling asleep
 I guess I'm afraid of the dark inside of me
 There's a monster underneath my bed
 And he pours nightmares inside my head
 Keep your friends close and your enemies closer
 Everyone thinks I'm stronger, but there's a monster
 Underneath my bed
 ♪
 As I lay my head to sleep
 I pray the Lord my soul to keep me
 Out of that damn old whiskey river
 Out of that damn old whiskey river
 If I die before I wake
 At least you'll know my soul is safe
 'Cause I'm prayin' to the Lord come take
 That damn old monster away
 There's a monster underneath my bed
 And he pours nightmares inside my head
 Keep your friends close and your enemies closer
 Everyone thinks I'm stronger, but there's a monster
 There's a monster underneath my bed
