Behind Every Corner
Behind every corner is monster unseen
Lurking in the shadows, following me
But when I look, it suddenly disappears
My brain still tells me there's something to fear
Like Schrodinger's cat, it is both there and not
Until the box is finally opened, and I can relieve my thoughts
I stare at the floor and try not to see
The predators that roam, my worst enemies
With their hand around my neck I try to fight back
But no matter how hard I try, it's strength I lack
So I beg and pray to the Goddess above
To turn me into an unreachable star beloved
