Bugs crawling along my skin
Give in to the pain
and it will stop
no more to contain
hear a footstep
outside my room
please don't come in
here to presume
I'm just a child
small and afraid
lying here
I've been betrayed
What you offer me
is not new
I've heard it all
I'll never stop you
close your eyes
to the nightmares
it's alright
they're just downstairs
shadows leaping
painting shapes
creeping softly
as imagination escapes
monsters are for children
there's no monsters lying here
so why does what i fear
take the form of monsters near?
