"Monsters" lyrics

I'm not afraid of monsters
But I'm afraid of myself

You promised me heaven
But this feels like hell
I can't get sleep, so I just tell myself
Can't get to heaven
So I'll stay in hell
I can't find peace, sometimes I hate this realm

I'd like to think that I
Could be somebody else
If I were a star, I'd shoot away so far
Sometimes I find it hard to recognise myself
Like I'm an alien, spaceship, crash, burn it

I'm not afraid of monsters
But I'm afraid of myself
Stuck in an illusion
Crying for help
I'm not afraid of monsters
But I'm afraid of myself
Looking in the mirror
I tell myself
Monsters, I'm not afraid

I'm not afraid of monsters
Monsters inside of me
I'm not afraid

Promise me heaven
But this feels like hell
I'm in the deep, another rainy spell
I can't get to heaven
So I stay in hell
Round and round on this carousel

I'd like to think that I
Could be somebody else
If I were a star, I'd shoot away so far
Out of my head
I need time to digest
I need to tell myself
To breathe

I'm not afraid of monsters
But I'm afraid of myself
Stuck in an illusion
Crying for help
I'm not afraid of monsters
But I'm afraid of myself
Looking in the mirror
I tell myself
Monsters, I'm not afraid

(Of monsters
Monsters inside of me
I'm not afraid
Monsters
I'm not afraid of monsters
Monsters inside of me
I'm not afraid
Breathe)

I'm not afraid of monsters
But I'm afraid of myself
Stuck in an illusion
Crying for help
I'm not afraid of monsters
But I'm afraid of myself
Looking in the mirror
I tell myself
Monsters, I'm not afraid
