He was never afraid of the monsters under his bed
Just the monster he desperately hid inside his head
Every little thing puts him over the edge
It's like everyone's trying to push him off the ledge
He's afraid of himself
There's no one there to help
He's losing control
The rage is swallowing him whole
When he's up late most nights
He's alone but still gets in fights
Punching everything in site
When he looks in the mirror he hates the monster he sees
This is not the person he wants to be
His knuckles are swelled and bruised
Thinking back to all the times he's been used
Nobody notices how hard he tries
To keep the monster disguised
He struggles to breathe
Punches the wall for relief
He's trying so hard
Not to fall apart
Everybody calls him an asshole
But they don't know how much he struggles to keep control
His mind is getting the best of him
The light that used to be in his eyes is quickly going dim
He's exhausted from everything
Wonders why it's all happening
The stress is piling up
Punishes himself for not being good enough
All his friends
They all left in the end
What does he do now?
All he wants is to hurt everybody around
Desperately tries not to snap
Struggles to relax
The rage randomly hits
Before he knows it
Blood's dripping down his fist
He closes his eyes
This is the monster he keeps disguised
