Athena - Monster

Before you I was never afraid of the dark
But now I lie awake to the beat of my heart
You’re a snake but I’m in too deep to care

You call me “baby” right before you take a bite
Dangle me from a thread
Go on turn out the light
You tell me “maybe” keep me waiting up all night

I’ve been sleeping with the monster in my closet
Now my nightmares feel like, feel like dreams
He’s a beast but he’ll make you feel like a beauty
Oh he loves with his teeth
(I can’t stop) sleeping with monsters

All my friends used to say I’m a little naive
But the lies on your lips always tasted so sweet
How was I supposed to know that you’re a virus?

You call me “baby” right before you take a bite
Dangle me from a thread
Go on turn out the light
You tell me “maybe” keep me waiting up all night

I’ve been sleeping with the monster in my closet
Now my nightmares feel like, feel like dreams
He’s a beast but he’ll make you feel like a beauty
Oh he loves with his teeth
(I can’t stop) sleeping with monsters

(Ahh, ahh, oooh, oooh)
Sleeping with monsters
(Leave the light on)
Sleeping with monsters
(I keep tearing holes in my skin, it’s my fault for letting you in)
Sleeping with monsters

I’ve been sleeping with the monster in my closet
Now my nightmares feel like, feel like dreams
He’s a beast but he’ll make you feel like a beauty
Oh he loves with his teeth
(I can’t stop) sleeping with monsters
