Monsters Beneath my Bed
There are monsters beneath my bed
Their gnawing fangs fill me with dread
They’ve lived as long as I remember
Weaving darkness for my surrender
Fairy tale beasts
These demons are not
Drowning my dreams
And leaving me distraught
But I know better
Than that child from my days past
I’ve found my new secret
With which to vanquish them at last
In every darkest night
When monsters fills me with fright
I will extinguish their blight
By simply turning on the light
