I feel it creeping 'round the corner

And all I know is that I don't feel safe

I feel the tapping on my shoulder

I turn around in an alarming state

But am I losing my miiiiiind?

I really think so

Not a creature in siiiiiight

But what you don't know

Is that

My breathing gets faster

And so does my heartbeat

I wish this was over

I wish that this was a dream, but!

I've created a monster!

A hell within my head

There's nowhere to go

I'm out on my own

Oh, I'm so scared

(Oh, I'm so scared)

I've created a monster

A beast inside my brain

There's nowhere to go

I'm out on my own

My mind impaired

To wake me from my nightmare

Wait, something doesn't feel right

No, something seems wroooong

And I've been feeling this way

(Oh, that's too bad)

For far too long

As my vision gets blurred

My skin's getting colder

Appearing young

While I'm growing older

I collapse to the floor and scream,

"Can anybody save me from myself?!"

I've created a monster!

A hell within my head

There's nowhere to go

I'm out on my own

Oh I'm so scared

(Oh, I'm so scared)

I've created a monster!

A beast inside my brain

There's nowhere to go, I'm out on my own

My mind impaired

To wake me from my nightmare

Walking to the ledge

I find myself looking down

Frozen still with fear

Now I'm plunging to the ground

If only I knew how to fly

Then I could convince myself

This isn't my time to die

Instead I'm rocketing faster

And faster

I'm diving to the floor

And when my body crashes to the pavement

I'm right back where I was before

I've created a monster

A hell within my head

There's nowhere to go

I'm out on my own

Oh, I'm so scared

No! Nooooooo!

I've created a monster!

A hell within my head

There's nowhere to go

I'm out on my own

Oh, I'm so scared

(Oh, I'm so scared)

I've created a monster, a beast inside my brain

There's nowhere to go

I'm out on my own

My mind impaired

To wake me from my nightmare

I'm so scared

Awake me from my nightmare

I'm so scared

Awake me from my nightmare

I'm so scared!

Awake me from my nightmare!
