Watch Me

I was once in need of help

The monster I feared the most came to me one night

And he beat me up and gave me bruises

I screamed for help

But no one came,

The next night he came again

Knocking my door down

He beat me up and gave me more bruises

And again, I screamed for help

But no one came--

Until I finally realized that I was being watched

By eyes I've grown so familiar with that I'd recognize them even without my glasses

So the next night the monster came to me again

And beat me up and broke my nose

I screamed for help only this time I called out his name

But he just watched me

Too afraid to help,

Too afraid of the monster in front of me

So he just watched until I couldn't see anything anymore
