lyrics

There's a monster coming after me
Even though I'm who I was born to be
I'm strong and witty and capable of anything
But there's a monster coming after me

I know every hallway in my house
Every closet, little cracks, and secret ways out
I know all the people that live on my street
With perfect square yards that they keep real neat
There's an atlas in my drawer with little lines that lead
To every corner of the world that is sovereign and free
My car can take me to boat or a plane
And the money in my wallet can get me the fuck away

But there's a monster coming after me
Even though I was raised by a perfect family
I've got all my friends and a college degree
But there's a monster coming after me

I want to be saved because I earned it
I don't deserve this because I didn't ask for it

I've got a lover who truly loves me
She lies next to me when I sleep
Got a dog and insurance and vacation days
And a cabin in the woods right next to the lake

There's a monster coming after me
Even though I say my prayers and wear my rosary
God is with me and my soul is his to keep
But there's a monster coming after me
