Monsters
Timeflies feat. Katie Sky Lyrics

I see your monsters
I recognize the demons that you are struggling with

I see your pain
I understand the hurt that you are going through

Tell me your problems
Share your issues with me, and I will provide you with support

I'll chase them away
I will make sure that your problems disappear

I'll be your lighthouse
I will guide you through your darkest times

I'll make it okay
I will ensure everything turns out fine, no matter what happens

When I see your monsters
Whenever I detect your fears or worries

I'll stand there so brave
I'll be strong to support you in your tough times

And chase them all away
I'll make sure that your issues dissipate

A cup of coffee still steaming
A cup of joe that is hot, brewed, and being drunk by the artist

Staring back at me, it's blacker than the night
The drink reflects a darkness just like the sky during the night

I'm awake but still sleeping
The artist is aware of their surroundings, but they are not mentally alert

I keep telling myself I'll be alright (I won't)
The singer is trying to convince themselves that everything will be okay when it is not

And I know it can't get worse than today
The singer thinks they've had the worst day imaginable

Sitting here and she's trying to rehearse what to say
She's trying to prepare words for a conversation with the singer

See, she's in the bathroom hoping I'm not earshot
She is hiding in the bathroom and hopeful that the artist is not listening in

While she's getting used to the sound of a teardrop (Splash)
She's gotten accustomed to crying and the sound of tears leaving her eyes

It hits the tile
The tears hit the floor

And I know it's been a while since you seen me smile and laugh like I used to
It's been a long time since anyone has seen the singer happy

I've been in denial since it happened
The artist has been rejecting the reality of a certain event

Just take me to the past
The artist wants to go back to previous moments in their life

'Cause I just can't imagine losing you (too)
The artist cannot wrap their head around the idea of losing someone they love

I can't explain this so I'll keep it all inside
The singer cannot describe their feelings, so they are keeping it to themselves

Wear my pain, but it's masked by my pride
The artist is experiencing distress and discomfort but hides it with their ego

She came to hold me and she cried
Someone is there to comfort the singer

Told me this as she stared into my eyes, said
As they gazed into each other's eyes, the person spoke

I can't
I am incapable

You won't like what you see
You'll be unsatisfied with what you behold

If you were in my head and had to hear my pleas
If you were in my thoughts and listened to my requests

It's like, I can't believe this is happening to me
I cannot fathom that this is occurring to me

And could someone please shut this f*cking answering machine
The person wants the voicemail to be turned off

So I can start leaving these messages that you will never get
I want to record messages that I know you'll never hear

And all these cries for help
I keep calling for assistance

You'll never see and never check
You'll never watch or pay attention

But I guess it's easy for you to leave me
It's simple and effortless for you to abandon me

But believe me
Have faith in me

See this isn't something that Imma just forget
I won't be able to forget this easily

I would trade it all for one more minute
If I could have a bit more time, I would give up everything

Don't you see I really need you to talk to
Can't you see how much I need to speak to you

I'm still sitting here wondering who did it
I'm left questioning who caused this

While I'm staring out our front door
I'm looking at our front door, hoping you'll come back

Knowing you'll never walk through
Understanding that you will never return

Said you'd come right back
You assured me you would return quickly

And now you're gone like that
Now you've vanished without warning

A blank stare as I stand so alone
I'm standing by myself with a vacant expression on my face

And know you're never coming home (damn)
And I know that you'll never come back

I got a heart made of fool's gold
My heart is worthless like fake gold

Got me feeling so cold
I'm feeling numb and lacking emotion

But you chipping away
You are softening my tough exterior

All the promises that I told
All of the things I have said in the past

Felt like I was on those
Feels like I am on drugs that alter my reality

But keep slipping away
But they keep disappearing from my grasp

I want nobody else
I don't want anybody else except for you

But it's hard to get to know me
It's difficult for others to understand me

When I don't know myself
When I'm not sure who I am as a person

And it helps, 'cause I felt
And that's beneficial because I have been feeling

I was down, I was out
I was feeling sad, defeated and hopeless

Then you looked at me now
But now that you're here, things have changed for the better

And said
And you spoke, telling me
