Now I haven't seen you in forty days and nights
And I've trouble sleeping when I turn off all the lights
I'm drinking and eating but my clothes still don't fit right
And every morning, well I'm waking overtired
And there's a hole within my chest and nothing can fill it
Yeah there's a beast beneath my bed and nothing can kill it
My head's full of lightning. I'm a stripped and tangled wire
My heart keeps on beating and my blood is filled with fire
I focus on breathing and continue to perspire
Now I'm over thinking for half the god damn night
And there's a hole within my chest. I wish I could fill it
Yeah there's a beast beneath my bed. I wish I could kill it
I'm worn out pretending that everything's alright
I'm over explaining why I always seem uptight
So I'm doing something that'll help me to rewrite
The words that I'm singing and continue to recite
And there's a hole within my chest. I'm trying to fill it
Yeah, there's a beast beneath my bed. I'm trying to kill it
And there's a hole within my chest and I'm gonna fill it
Yeah there's a beast beneath my bed and I'm gonna kill it
