The Monster in My Mind
Alli Durrant & Rita Glynn & Susie Maddocks 

Only 8 years old 
Trying to fit inside a mold
Of what somebody else
Told me I should be 

By time I was 16 
Already given up on dreams
Cause I’d rather just be nothing
Than risk failing 

Cause the monster in my mind
Lives in the closets deep inside 
I can’t find the light
And I just wanna make her leave
Make her leave 

The girl at 22 
Was someone that I hardly knew
Disguised by lies 
I tried so hard to run from

The more I pushed away
The more my monster came to play
She grew stronger
Oh, the longer that I ran

Cause the monster in my mind
Lives in the closets deep inside 
I can’t find the light
And I just wanna make her leave

The monster in my mind

Can’t ever keep my demons out of sight
(Doesn’t matter how I push away, push away)
Can’t ever trust it when they say they know me
(Is it fiction?)
I always find a way to find a light
(Is it real?)
I always find a way to breathe in slowly

Can’t ever keep my demons out of sight
(Doesn’t matter how I push away, push away)
Can’t ever trust it when they say they know me
(Is it fiction?)
I always find a way to find a light
(Is it real?)
I always find a way to breathe in slowly
(I always find a way to breathe in slowly)

Cause the monster in my mind
Lives in the closets deep inside 
I can’t find the light
And I just wanna make her leave

The monster in my mind
I can’t find the light
And I just wanna make her leave
