[Verse]
Living with a monster inside these walls
Silent steps down shadowed halls
It’s breathing hate it’s breathing fire
My life’s a rope on a funeral pyre
[Verse 2]
It cracks the whip it feeds on fear
I scream inside but no one hears
Chained to chores no room to stray
My soul is dust swept away
[Chorus]
No freedom no time for me
The monster's grin my reality
In my dream it’s always there
Eyes of darkness cold and bare
[Verse 3]
It’s in the air it’s in the ground
Every heartbeat makes a sound
I tiptoe past its wrathful glare
But its claws they’re always there
[Bridge]
Oh how it hungers oh how it feeds
On my pain my silent pleas
My fists they itch my spirit fights
But shadows drown the morning light
[Chorus]
No freedom no time for me
The monster's grin my reality
In my dream it’s always there
Eyes of darkness cold and bare
