Monsters
They dwell within the souls of us all When they're unleashed, everything falls Keeping them subdued within is hard Unhinged they'd go the whole nine yards Even their faces look a lot like our own Holding them down takes strength unknown Living with pain & anger and alone since birth Seldom seen by anyone on the face of the earth We fight the temptations, we can't give in We cannot fall to the hurt we feel within Instead, despite the anquish and stress We must lock them away, and leave out the rest Sometimes they break out from under lock and key And spread carnage as far as the eye can see They are the spawn of our burden and rage And we fight to put them back in their cage The monsters in us, others hardly ever see A simple glimpse and your loved ones flee They will hurt you and everyone you know So whatever you do, never let them go
