Gave you up long ago But what if I need you again? What if I need you again? It's like the door will never close It's hard not walking in Hard not walking in Peace never finds me when I'm falling asleep Guess I'm afraid of the dark inside of me There's a monster underneath my bed And he pours nightmares inside my head Keep your friends close and your enemies closer Everyone thinks I'm stronger, but there's a monster Underneath my bed Ever since you passed away I got a bottle with your name Save it for a rainy day And Lord, I swear I don't want to break But I could use a taste I guess things never change Peace never finds me when I'm falling asleep I guess I'm afraid of the dark inside of me There's a monster underneath my bed And he pours nightmares inside my head Keep your friends close and your enemies closer Everyone thinks I'm stronger, but there's a monster Underneath my bed ♪ As I lay my head to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep me Out of that damn old whiskey river Out of that damn old whiskey river If I die before I wake At least you'll know my soul is safe 'Cause I'm prayin' to the Lord come take That damn old monster away There's a monster underneath my bed And he pours nightmares inside my head Keep your friends close and your enemies closer Everyone thinks I'm stronger, but there's a monster There's a monster underneath my bed
