Don't want to turn off the light
hope someone hears me tonight.
I know there's a snake in my bed

eating its way through my head

I want to be normal, I want to feel safe

waking up screaming, it's always the same.
I don't want to turn off the light
hope someone hears me tonight.


Hold me, tell me everything's ok.
Show me there's a way to beat the monster

save me, make it go away.

I'm trying to wash of the stains,

try not to think about the pain
I know I've got no place to hide,
God knows the times that I tried


I want to be normal, I want to feel safe
waking up screaming, it's always the same.

I don't want to turn off the light
hope someone hears me tonight.


Hold me, tell me everything's ok.
Show me there's a way to beat the monster
save me, make it go away.


Hold me, tell me everything's ok.
Show me there's a way to beat the monster

save me, make it go away.

Ooooooooh, oooooooooh, ooooooooooh, ooooooooooh.


I want to be normal, I want to feel safe.
Waking up screaming, it's always the same.

I don't want to turn off the light.
Hope someone hears me tonight.


Hold me, tell me everything's ok.
Show me there's a way to beat the monster
save me, make it go away.


Hold me, tell me everything's ok.
Show me there's a way to beat the monster

save me, make it go away.
