My teeth are falling out
And I'm rotting in this make believe dreamThere's a monster under my bed,
Some time he comes out
And we talk for a while
He tells me about the stars
And I tell him of your smileSome nights
I forget how to sleep
The cold water in my head turns to blood and shark teethSoon the creepy crawlies
Will crawl out my mouth
Leaving just the vipers to the bottom
Of my lungsDarling I just want to be your favorite song
Call me baby boy,
run your fingers through my heart,
And hold me just a little closer on the nights I forget my nameYou can teach m how to sleep with my eyes closed
And I can teach you how to dream with your eyes wide openIm a mess of a lover
A monster of a man
But I can promise I'm trying
