I used to get these nightmares
No, they're worse, they're somewhat real
I think they haunt me after my last meal
They're there, and they're, I think they
Watch me as I sleep and jump
They jump inside my head
And they just jump

So I told them to knock,
To knock on my front door and maybe
Maybe I'd let them in but
They told me to knock,
Knock it off
No one would listen
They sent me away, so that I could be haunted
I was vulnerable

I begged to go home, to hide under the sheets
No one would listen
I was insane apparently
I kept asking to let me have some covers
A blanket to shield my mind
But they shocked me,
They shocked me and let them jump
Just let them jump

Up and down they spun me around
I was so dizzy I didn't know what to say
I didn't know,

What was that sound?

They never leave me alone now
They're here, they're there
When I go to lunch they stare
I just sit quietly and sip my tea
But they're still there waiting for me

It's too much now
They're still here, they're still watching me
I turned around and one laughed at me
They won't let me go home
Let me go home
Go home

But they stay anyway

If I could find a way out of torture
I'd tell the world, I'd let them see
Inside me brain, inside of me
I forgot how not to fear the ones like me
So I just scream and I scream
And I scream

They all think that I'm crazy
They've given up, no one visits me
If only I could just tell them
All I really ever need
Is love

Oh yes, the monsters jump back in
The monsters of jealousy again
They're tearing me apart
They're breaking my bandaged heart
I can't get them to stop

Someone help me

I've said it time and time again
Nobody helps, no one listens
They don't understand what pain I'm in

So, these nightmares, no these experiences
They stay with me
I keep trying to find a way out, but really
Really
They stay with me
