Lyrics

Remember that monster under the bed?

Recollection of a childhood fear represented by a monster under the bed.

It lived on inside my head

The fear continues to persist in the person's thoughts and imagination.


Cause when I lie awake at night

The individual struggles to sleep, experiencing restlessness.

My head keeps grinding, eyes open wide

Mental turmoil and inability to relax are causing insomnia.


I can't remember the last time that I closed my eyes

The person can't recall the last time they peacefully slept.

And fell asleep and did not feel agonized

Even sleep brings distress or anxiety, preventing relaxation.


Take me back to the good old days

Yearning for a return to a simpler, more enjoyable past.

When life had a slower pace

Nostalgia for a time when life moved at a leisurely pace.


I wish that I could go back to

Desire to revisit a time when decisions were based solely on personal desires.

The times when everything was based on if I wanted to

Reflecting on a period where choices were entirely one's own.

When my opinion was a blueprint for the truth

Personal opinions held significant influence over reality.

When the world was only everyone I knew

A time when the social circle was limited to known individuals.


I can't remember the last time that I closed my eyes

The ongoing struggle with sleep persists, causing ongoing distress.

And fell asleep and did not feel agonized

Sleep continues to bring discomfort or distress.

This can't be good for me, how do I get back from here?

Recognition that the current situation is detrimental, seeking a way out.

When I know I can't get back, my careless younger years

Regretting the inability to return to carefree moments of youth.


I wish that I could go back to

Desire to go back to a time when choices were more personal and less complex.

The times when everything was based on if I wanted to

Reflecting again on a period where choices were entirely one's own.

I wish that I could go back to

Reiteration of the longing to return to a time based solely on personal desires.

The times when everything was based on if I wanted to

Repeating the sentiment of a time when choices were entirely one's own.


I can't remember the last time that I closed my eyes

The ongoing distress during sleep remains unresolved.

And fell asleep and did not feel agonized

The struggle with sleep-induced discomfort continues.

This can't be good for me, how do I get back from here?

Seeking a solution to return from the current distressing state.

When I know I can't get back, my careless younger years

Realization that returning to carefree youth is impossible, accepting the present reality.
