Monster

The monsters in my closet were my friends
We'd share our stories and play pretend
It took me too long to leave
And I lost a part of me
Pretending I wasn't a monster like them

But the closet was such a home to me
And sometimes I miss it dearly
Wishing that I could get
But there's no in and out of it
So I guess this is how life's meant to be

It took me several years to figure out
Who the real monsters were but I know now
I tried to pretend that I was just like them but
No matter what I did I stood out

But the closet was such a home to me
And sometimes I miss it dearly
Wishing that I could get
But there's no in and out of it
So I guess this is how life's meant to be (Oh)
I wanted so bad to believe
And lying came so easily
All I had to do to fit was
Smother what I found within and
That was easier to do than being me

But sometimes I find it hard to breathe
I wonder when the past will stop haunting me
Please be gentle with my patched-up heart
The seams are getting loose and I'm afraid I'll fall apart

But I'm just like everybody else
But sometimes I think it's hard to tell
But these scars will fade with time
And I'll pretend that I'm just fine so I can be loved as well
I'm just like everybody else
But sometimes I think it's hard to tell
But these scars will fade with time
And I'll pretend that I'm just fine so I can be loved as well
