Monsters

They're in my polaroids
Hanging on the wall within my memories
Picture framing every insecurity
Telling me the things I can't undo, can't undo

They drag me to the past
When my head was fighting back
I'd run to keep my thoughts away
Low numbers on the scale
Couldn't measure up my pain
Was waiting for some better days
Wish I could tell myself

I've been healing monsters in my head
Cause they told me I would never be loved
They told me I'm being too much
Sometimes I'm closer to the monsters than my friends
But they show me that I'm able to love
That being me is being enough

We call it rational
To fit into a standard that's impossible
No time for human being, be exceptional
The voices' getting louder all the time, all the time

We're living in distress
Count on paper, counting checks
Where freedom's just a holiday
If we turned the voices down
Let the silence make its' sound
We're hearing what we need to hear
That's when I'll hear myself

I've been healing monsters in my head
Cause they told me I would never be loved
They told me I'm being too much
Sometimes I'm closer to the monsters than my friends
But they show me that I'm able to love
That being me is being enough

Never enough, never enough
Never enough, never enough
Never enough, never enough
Never enough, never enough
That's what I told myself

I've been healing monsters in my head
Cause they told me I would never be loved
They told me I'm being too much
Sometimes I'm closer to the monsters than my friends
But they show me that I'm able to love
That being me is being enough

Closer than my friends
All the monsters inside my head
Yeah, yeah
