monster in me

How do you sleep when there are just so many things on your mind? When all you can do is toss and turn but it is to no avail. How do you sleep when the thoughts on your mind are close to eating up your insides, nibbling away the good memories and leaving behind the bad. How do you sleep when realization dawns on you that those thoughts? Those thoughts that have been taking up so much of your time, have no real content in them? That to others they may not be seen so much as a "problem", and they will simply dismiss it as quickly as it comes. How sure are you that it's not just you? That once again, your over-thinking skills are taking charge?

Tell me, with all those, just how do you sleep? How can you sleep? Because I can't.

I see your monsters

I see your pain

Tell me your problems

I'll chase them away 

I'll be your lighthouse

I'll make it okay

When I see your monsters

I'll stand there so brave

And chase them all away... 

Chase these monsters, these monsters in my head, away for me - 

Please.
