I had a dream you died last night
I woke up mouthing things I should’ve said
But I slept on those words instead
You haunt the stairways in my head

You’re the monster under my bed
Reach for me when I repent
Yet I should’ve learnt, I should’ve learnt
You’re the monster under my bed
Making mess I keep tryna address
I can’t come to terms
With the monster under my bed

I should’ve learnt


I told you secrets I should’ve kept
You spill them up as I collect
But I fall for it half a million times
Like a bad old house, just one peek inside
You’re the mystery, with hell of a history
And my hands are red

You’re the monster under my bed
Reach for me when I repent
Yet I should’ve learnt, I should’ve learnt
You’re the monster under my bed
Making mess I keep tryna address
I can’t come to terms
With the monster under my bed

I should’ve learnt
