[00:00.25] |
I killed my first monster when I was seven years old |
[00:06.18] |
He melted like butter in my bathroom's sixty-watt bulb |
[00:11.96] |
Kept a three-cell MagLite from Daddy's workshop drawer |
[00:17.99] |
Under my pillow and I'd pull it like a sword |
[00:23.61] |
Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night |
[00:29.99] |
Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light |
[00:36.13] |
I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said |
[00:42.37] |
'Cause I've learned that |
[00:43.93] |
The monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed |
[00:53.24] |
The wolf hunts a hungry man and the devil a lonely heart |
[00:59.00] |
A minefield of bad decisions lay hidin' in the dark |
[01:04.76] |
Greed stalks, sickness steals, and pride lays a wicked trap |
[01:11.03] |
You can't avoid 'em all, no, you gotta trust me on that |
[01:17.07] |
Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night |
[01:23.06] |
Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light |
[01:29.29] |
I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said |
[01:35.38] |
'Cause I've learned that |
[01:37.28] |
The monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed |
[02:07.68] |
Daddy, check my closet, leave on the bathroom light |
[02:13.59] |
I smile and say "All clear" when I tuck him in for the night |
[02:19.67] |
But Daddy, I'm still scared, can I sleep with you instead? |
[02:25.88] |
I kneel down beside my little man and I bow my head |
[02:32.84] |
Anymore when a restless feelin' keeps me up at night |
[02:39.30] |
Fallin' on my knees is my new turnin' on the light |
[02:45.27] |
I keep my faith intact, make sure my prayers are said |
[02:51.45] |
'Cause I've learned that |
[02:53.17] |
The monsters ain't the ones beneath the bed |
[02:59.02] |
I've learned that the monsters ain't underneath the bed |
