Pay no attention 

to the man behind to curtain

for if you do

it is surely certain

that you will not at all like

what you will find

for there is a monster that dwells

deep within my mind

he normally slumbers

but when he is woken

he remembers

every bad word ever spoken

If only you could see

what I would like to be

I'd like to be free

from this thing inside of me

but you see this cannot be 

he is a part of me

constantly attacking 

my humanity

on the outside 

you can see my light

On the inside

you will experience night

I'm running out of places

to run and hide

for there is no concealing

the beast inside
