Monsters

Sometimes life is too dark, there's no light
 I can't decide what's wrong or right,
 While this beating heart falls out of sight,
 I'm starting to lose my will to fight, 
 Letting my pain destroy my might,
 But I keep my head held up right,
 With my tongue and lips locked tight,
 So I can push my happiness to the side,
 To leave myself empty to die.
Everytime..

 Mirrors show monsters I don't recognize,
 But it's behind these beasts that I hide,
 With a fist full or hate 
 And a heart full of pain.
I rest my case
