Beast Beneath the Bed
Confronting the Inner Beast: Nathan Seeckts' Struggle Unveiled
Lyrics
Now I haven't seen you in forty days and nights
Expressing a significant period of separation from someone.
And I've trouble sleeping when I turn off all the lights
Struggling with insomnia, especially when confronted with darkness.
I'm drinking and eating but my clothes still don't fit right
Despite normal activities, feeling uncomfortable in one's own skin.
And every morning, well I'm waking overtired
Starting each day fatigued and exhausted.
And there's a hole within my chest and nothing can fill it
Describing a profound emptiness or emotional void.
Yeah there's a beast beneath my bed and nothing can kill it
Metaphorically addressing a persistent and unshakable internal struggle.
My head's full of lightning. I'm a stripped and tangled wire
Mental turmoil, feeling like a chaotic and unstable force.
My heart keeps on beating and my blood is filled with fire
Intense emotions, particularly anger or passion, coursing through the veins.
I focus on breathing and continue to perspire
Focusing on basic survival instincts amidst stress and anxiety.
Now I'm over thinking for half the god damn night
Ongoing mental activity, possibly fueled by excessive thoughts.
And there's a hole within my chest. I wish I could fill it
Reiteration of the emotional void, expressing a desire to fill it.
Yeah there's a beast beneath my bed. I wish I could kill it
Reinforcing the metaphor of an internal beast, expressing a wish to overcome it.
I'm worn out pretending that everything's alright
Fatigue from pretending that everything is fine.
I'm over explaining why I always seem uptight
Frustration with having to explain constant tension or anxiety.
So I'm doing something that'll help me to rewrite
Seeking a constructive change to alter the narrative of one's life.
The words that I'm singing and continue to recite
Using creative expression, specifically singing, as a means of self-reinvention.
And there's a hole within my chest. I'm trying to fill it
Continued effort to fill the emotional void within.
Yeah, there's a beast beneath my bed. I'm trying to kill it
Persistent struggle to overcome and eliminate the internal beast.
And there's a hole within my chest and I'm gonna fill it
Determined commitment to filling the emotional void within.
Yeah there's a beast beneath my bed and I'm gonna kill it
Resolute determination to conquer and eliminate the internal beast.
