🖤 Monsters In My Head (Reimagined)

Intro: It’s quiet again That’s when they show up Verse 1: I can smile through the day like I’m fine Say all the right things at the right time But the second the lights go out They start talking way too loud They tell me I’m wasting air That I’m only wanted when I’m useful I know they lie, I swear I do But they sound a lot like truth Pre-Chorus: I try to drown them out But they know my name Chorus: I’ve got monsters in my head They know every scar I never said They twist my thoughts until I bend Then ask me why I’m scared again I fight them every single night Lose my sleep just to survive I know they’re not real, but instead They feel like home inside my head Verse 2: I replay things I can’t rewind Every word I wish I’d left behind They say “you ruin everything” And I almost start to agree I’ve tried pretending they’re not there Tried acting stronger than I feel But silence gives them space to breathe And they never miss a beat Pre-Chorus: They wait until I’m weak Then pull up a chair Chorus: I’ve got monsters in my head They keep score of every regret They promise peace if I give in Then disappear when I’m a mess I fight them every single night Hold my breath just to feel alright I know they’re not real, but instead They feel like home inside my head Bridge: Maybe I’m not broken Maybe I’m just tired Of carrying voices That never wanted me inspired If I could separate the truth From everything they say Maybe I’d finally hear myself Instead of pushing me away Final Chorus: I’ve got monsters in my head But they don’t get the final say They’ve been feeding on my fear But I’m still standing here today I still hear them when it’s late Still feel the weight they try to place But I’m learning they don’t own The parts of me I hate Outro: They’re still here But so am I
