A Monster Lives In Here

Living in the ligament between summer and fall it seems
I'm familiar with this certain strain of breeze
The scene before change, the pavement before the rain
The sun melts my skin, but now I can smell the cold
coming closer at a rate I've known before
and don't, don't you know I'm not afraid anymore

My new home is a lot like the one before, buried beneath the floor. I still need help to open the door
Will you be my cane, a body to keep me sane
contract my disease, your body my canvas please
You'd ask me what your expiration date is for
and don't, don't you know I don't do questions anymore

I never pay my dues on time
I'm abusing all of the same lines
No mercy on myself
I wring my neck until it's broke

Black hole coming, toilet scrubbing lonely months ahead
Plaster drilling, monsters living underneath my bed
Make time to repair the bullet holes inside my head
and don't, don't you know I'm still afraid

Yeah a monster lives in here (stay clear, stay clear, stay clear)
Yeah a monster lives in here
Yeah monster lives in here (stay clear, stay clear, stay clear)
