[Verse 1]
EI killed my first monster when I was sC#meven years old
He meElted like butter in my bathroom's sBixty-watt bulb
Kept a thEree-cell MagLite from Daddy's wC#morkshop drawer
EUnder my pillow and I'd pBull it like a sword
[Chorus]
AnymAore when a restless fEeelin' keBeps me up at C#mnight
FAallin' on my kEnees is my new tBurnin' on the lEight
I keep my faAith intaEct, make suBre my prayers are C#msaid
'Cause I'Ave learned that the Emonsters ain't the Aones beneath the bEed A
[Verse 2]
The Ewolf hunts a hungry man and the dAevil a lonely heart
A minefiEeld of bad decisions lay hBidin' in the dark
GrEeed stalks, sickness steals, and pride Alays a wicked trap
You cEan't avoid 'em all, no, you gotta Btrust me on tEhat
[Chorus]
AnymAore when a restless fEeelin' keBeps me up at C#mnight
FAallin' on my kEnees is my new tBurnin' on the lEight
I keep my faAith intaEct, make suBre my prayers are C#msaid
'Cause I'Ave learned that the Emonsters ain't the ones beBneath the C#mbed
AI've learned that the mEonsters ain't undBerneath the bEed
[Verse 3]
EDaddy, check my closet, leave Aon the bathroom light
I sEmile and say "All clear" when I Btuck him in for the night
But EDaddy, I'm still scared, can I sAleep with you instead?
I Ekneel down beside my little man and I bow my head
[Chorus]
AnymAore when a restless fEeelin' keBeps me up at C#mnight
FAallin' on my kEnees is my new tBurnin' on the lEight
I keep my faAith intaEct, make suBre my prayers are C#msaid
'Cause I'Ave learned that the Emonsters ain't the ones beBneath the C#mbed
AI've learned that the mEonsters ain't undBerneath the bEed
