Monster Inside

Words by Bryon Bowers

you are my everything you are my midnight spring I took you by the hand you pulled me back to land First saw your eyes it was only you there was no disguise nothing in-between me and you a comfort I did feel I needed you [chorus] A wanderer was I Til you pulled me Back to land… A monster's heart laid before you My love in the palm of your hand… Tried to push you away But you held your ground and stayed… Now the monster roams inside me and on his leash he stays… Sit down my lovely… Sit down With no fear… I'll make you some coffee I'll brew you some beer The monster He be dwelling Deep inside of you… [chorus] A wanderer was I Til you pulled me Back to land… A monster's heart laid before you My love in the palm of your hand… Tried to push you away But you held your ground and stayed… Now the monster roams inside me and on his leash he stays… The monster will pull you out Deep into the sea Sit down at my table I'll keep you safe with me… Take your walking boots off now Throw them to the sea… Take off your suit of armor And lay down here with me… [chorus] A wanderer was I Til you pulled me Back to land… A monster's heart laid before you My love in the palm of your hand… Tried to push you away But you held your ground and stayed… Now the monster roams inside me and on his leash he stays… I tried to run I tried so hard… But you would not relent I saw the road ahead of us the monster did discent… he could not flee you took his boots… so he circled round His leash pulled tight… and stomped his feet Then he laid on down that night… my heart rested with you… [chorus] A wanderer was I Til you pulled me Back to land… A monster's heart laid before you My love in the palm of your hand… Tried to push you away But you held your ground and stayed… Now the monster roams inside me and on his leash he stays…
