Fighting The Monster

Memory stalks the hallway

Like an unexploded bomb

Safe as milk and dull as dust

This could go on and on

I've been here too long

Fighting the monster

I've been cleaning out our closet

And I've rearranged our shoes

Everything in the cookbook's cooked

Still I've got the blues

It's the same old news

Fighting the monster

Hoping for a change in the weather

Knowing that this life could be better

Torn apart then back together

Fighting the monster

I planned to say some terrible things

But love was in your voice

All my tears have turned to rust

Leaving me no choice

I've been here too long

Fighting the monster

Hoping for a change in the weather

Knowing that this life could be better

Torn apart then back together

Fighting the monster

Memory stalks the hallway

Like an unexploded bomb

Safe as milk and dull as dust

This could go on

On and on
