I'm a little bit lonely but I'm never alone
Surrounded by myself and there is nobody home
The nights are long, last all day
And I can't keep keeping all the monsters away
Ah, need a flashlight to chase them away
Ah, nowhere to hide when they come out to play
I'm afraid of myself every time I see
The face in the mirror staring back at me
I don't care how long it takes
I gotta keep the monsters far away
Someday, someday, I don't know when
They're leaving and they're never coming back again
I'm sick and tired of screaming in the dark (ah)
I gotta keep the monsters away
I'm a little bit crazy, but aren't we all?
When your feeling the pressure and your back's to the wall
Gotta to leave the light on, kill the pain
Keep on keeping all the monsters away
Ah, give me a torch to chase them away
Ah, nowhere to hide when they come out to play
I'm afraid of myself every time I see
The face in the mirror staring back at me
I don't care how long it takes
I gotta keep the monsters far away
Someday, someday, I don't know when
They're leaving and they're never coming back again
I'm sick and tired of screaming in the dark (ah)
I gotta keep the monsters away
Hey! I gotta keep the monsters away
Gotta kind of fever that's giving me chills
Something deep inside me that I can't kill
Living with a creature that's outta control
Sitting on the edge of a big black hole
We gotta hear each other when we're crying for help
Gotta save each other if we gonna save ourselves
If you look inside we're all the same
Everybody's tryna to keep the monsters away
I'm afraid of myself every time I see
The face in the mirror staring back at me
I don't care how long it takes
I gotta keep the monsters far away
Someday, someday, I don't know when
They're leaving and they're never coming back again
I'm sick and tired of screaming in the dark (ah)
I gotta keep the monsters away
Hey! I gotta keep the monsters away
