My Own Monster

Katy Perry

4

I turn my head

There's nothing there

All I own is my thoughts

For my fears

I close the door

To keep out the bad

I plug my ears

To keep out these fears

And I cry

So hold me close

for I'm so tired

of holding myself

So very tired

And tired

tired and tired

Just hold me

(Repeat)

I listen to these voices

or is it this house

that's giving me chills,

As I lie upon

This little girls bed

Who's at the door?

Who's walking near?

Or has

My imagination spilled?

This little girl

All grown up still fears

Oh and I cry

CHORUS(2x)

Where can I go

Where can I hide

from these evil sufferings?

Oh these images

Painted on my walls

They say there's a place

That I can hide

in the shadow of your wings

Oh Lord, bring me

To this place of refuge

No more tears.

CHORUS(4x)
