Monsters
I'll lose you if I can't be alone
I'm in love with your eyes when you get me stoned
Drive me home and I'll sleepwalk back to you
I am the girl that I thought I outgrew
22 years old in my parent's home
Still speaking in a whisper on the phone
Grandma lit up, cursing in the guest room
All pissed off over the font on the family tomb
When I leave, I'll leave in a quiet way
But I'm too quiet to do anything but stay
I keep trying to outline a better life
But the pens run dry
Yeah, the pens run dry
And the lines never come out right anyway
There are monsters everywhere I turn
In disguise is my young self, I couldn't discern
See them now in my brother's passing
I see them now in my father's absence
One is curled in the bedside wine glass
In the master bedroom on mother's half
I can hear the floorboards on which they creep
I can feel their fingers while I sleep
In a dream, I am 14 all again
Watching my big brother talk to them
Saying, "She ain't half your height, pick on someone else tonight"
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, ooh, ooh
I'm in love with your eyes when you get me stoned
Drive me home and I'll sleepwalk back to you
I am the girl that I thought I outgrew
22 years old in my parent's home
Still speaking in a whisper on the phone
Grandma lit up, cursing in the guest room
All pissed off over the font on the family tomb
When I leave, I'll leave in a quiet way
But I'm too quiet to do anything but stay
I keep trying to outline a better life
But the pens run dry
Yeah, the pens run dry
And the lines never come out right anyway
There are monsters everywhere I turn
In disguise is my young self, I couldn't discern
See them now in my brother's passing
I see them now in my father's absence
One is curled in the bedside wine glass
In the master bedroom on mother's half
I can hear the floorboards on which they creep
I can feel their fingers while I sleep
In a dream, I am 14 all again
Watching my big brother talk to them
Saying, "She ain't half your height, pick on someone else tonight"
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, ooh, ooh
