My Own Monster

I turn my head, there's nothing thereAll I own is my thoughts for my fearsI close the door to keep out the badI plug my ears to keep out these fearsAnd I cry...So hold me close for I'm so tired of holding myselfSo very tired and tired, tired and tiredJust hold meSo hold me close for I'm so tired of holding myselfSo very tired and tired, tired and tiredJust hold meI listen to these voicesor is it this house that's giving me chills,As I lie upon this little girls bedWho's at the door? who's walking near?Or has my imagination spilled?This little girl all grown up still fearsOh and I cry!So hold me close for I'm so tired of holding myselfSo very tired and tired, tired and tiredJust hold meSo hold me close for I'm so tired of holding myselfSo very tired and tired, tired and tiredJust hold meWhere can I go where can I hide from these evil sufferings?Oh these images painted on my wallsThey say there's a place that I can hideIn the shadow of your wingsOh lord, bring me to this place of refugeNo more tears.So hold me close for I'm so tired of holding myselfSo very tired and tired, tired and tiredJust hold meSo hold me close for I'm so tired of holding myselfSo very tired and tired, tired and tiredJust hold meSo hold me close for I'm so tired of holding myselfSo very tired and tired, tired and tiredJust hold meSo hold me close for I'm so tired of holding myselfSo very tired and tired, tired and tiredJust hold meI'm so tiredOh hold...
