little and big

When you're little the monsters are under your bed 

Watching waiting always coming to get you

But when you're big the monsters are in your head.

You lie there young, afraid and filled with dread

Waiting for a werewolf or a zombie filled with goo

Cause when you're little the monsters are under your bed.

As you get older you forget the monsters you once fled

But they never leave you the monsters you once knew

Cause when you're big the monsters are in your head.

"Don't be silly there's nothing there" your parents said 

Yet despite all the comfort the fear still grew

Cause when you're little the monsters are under your bed.

Now you're older and your parents ignore you instead

Your lifer gets harder and its hard to continue

Cause when you're big the monsters are in your head.

Young or old nothing can take away all the tears shed

Cause from your monsters there is no rescue.

When you're little the monsters are under your bed,

But when your big the monsters are in your head.
