I wish I had a closet
To put my skeletons inside
So no one ever has to know
The things that I should hide
Disguising all my issues with
My confidence and pride
Cracking jokes at everything
That makes me wanna die
They tear me down
With my mattress on the floor
Theres no monsters under bed
But nothing stops the monsters
That are lurking in my head
Eating at my body
These monsters must be fed
I try to stop the monsters
But they tear me down
Tear me down instead
They tear me down
Make me human
Make me perfect
Make my struggle
Somehow worth it
Take my spirit
Take my heart
Take me all the way apart
Everybody has their ghosts
But my ghosts all have me
Haunting me at where I go
And when I fall asleep
Circling my head
My shoulders and my feet
A feeling so damn terrible
It brings me to my knees
Make me human
Make me perfect
Make my struggle
Somehow worth it
Take my spirit
Take my heart
Take me all the way apart
But never forget
The things that I said
They might be worth money
When I become dead
Still I need to choose
What I wanna do
My entire life
Before I reach my tomb
They tear me down instead
They tear me down
