Victoria Carbol
Quiet the Monsters
Close my eyes
Counting to ten
The walls cry out
Because they're bleeding again

Darkness descends
In a mind that won't mend
Colors fade to gray
But there's hope in your eyes
In your smile the sunrise
Scares the demons away

I'm frightened by
The monsters inside
But you calm the storm in my mind
Terrified
Look into my eyes
Because you quiet the monsters inside
My mind

Stand up straight
Back to the wall
Acting likе
You don't know me at all
But I see who you are
Under icе that won't thaw
And the ghosts that never quit
But the phantoms that touch
They don't haunt me as much
As the words you won't admit

I'm frightened by
The monsters inside
But you calm the storm in my mind
Terrified
Look into my eyes
Because you quiet the monsters inside
My mind

Pull me closer
Be we shoulder
We've grown older
Don't you walk away
We'll find a way

I'm frightened by
The monsters inside
But you calm the storm in my mind
Terrified
Look into my eyes
Because you quiet the monsters inside

Terrified
Look into my eyes
Because you quiet the monsters
Inside my mind
Quiet the monsters inside
My mind
