[Chorus: Daphne Mitchell McCool]
The monsters, the mon, the monsters
All I see is this pain in you
The monsters, the mon, the monsters (Pain in you)
All I see is this pain in you
[Verse 1: Brahma Bull]
I hear but I don't see the monster right below my bed (Naw)
I fear you'll never see the monsters in my head
This is reality, normality is fearin' death (Death)
But all this battlin', Brahma Bull or is it Jeff
See I don't really know the difference 'tween the two of them
It's slowly killin' me this mind state I'm livin' in
The man in the mirror is a stranger I don't even know
My friends and my family are screamin' that he's got to go
Slit wrists don't solve shit, nah I've tried (Nuh uh)
And the pills don't numb me anymore you're right
This isn't me, I'm not the character these people love
No livin' free I'm on a cliff lookin' for a shove
Too weak to find the strength, too strong to back down
I try to peak and find the link to bring me back around
I'm homicidal and suicidal with no friends
I'm holdin' a shotgun, a barrel at both ends
[Chorus: Daphne Mitchell McCool]
The monsters, the mon, the monsters
All I see is this pain in you
The monsters, the mon, the monsters (Pain in you)
All I see is this pain in you
[Verse 2: Brahma Bull]
This ain't a joke, it ain't a game, it ain't a fairy tale
There is no antidote to help me cope inside this hell
When I say monsters this context I'm speakin' in
Don't want no sympathy I'm lookin' just to escape again
Jekyll in the mornin' but I'm lookin' for a place to hide
Never get a warnin', I just wake and see it in my eyes
Apologize to everybody, everything I put you through
And baby, I can't lie, you took the brunt, it must be killin' you
I never meant to hurt or misdirect your mindset
Listen 'til the end, there's no need to hit rewind yet
I love you, but lovin' me is so hard
'Cause every single mornin', dealers handin' you some new cards
You need some balance on this tightrope I've handed you
Not how we planned it and I don't know how I landed you
So many wrongs I ain't scared to say I need some help
But damn this song, I'm gonna rewind myself
[Chorus: Daphne Mitchell McCool]
The monsters, the mon, the monsters
All I see is this pain in you
The monsters, the mon, the monsters (Pain in you)
All I see is this pain in you
[Bridge: Brahma Bull]
I hear the monster feel the blood slower heart beat
Angel on my shoulder plus the devil's tryin' to kill me (Kill me)
Every single mornin' every night I'm steady fightin' this (Yeah)
The pen is inkin' words but I'm not positive who's writin' this
Exorcist, head spins when the wind blows
Starin' out the windows wonderin' how the end goes
Trying to block it out and overcome is what so many say
But does it matter? We're not in control anyway
[Chorus: Daphne Mitchell McCool]
The monsters, the mon, the monsters
All I see is this pain in you
The monsters, the mon, the monsters (Pain in you)
All I see is this pain in you
All I see is this
All I see is this
All I see is this pain in you
