Behind my walls I built a monster is residing

I can hear his woeful scratching sounds

I know that his time he is just biding

In the hope that he will never be found

He has been hiding for a long time now

Trying to find a way from behind my walls

Searching and digging for a way out somehow

I know people would be frighten if he they saw

He tries his best to make me see things his way

I try to control him as louder each night he does shout

Cracks forming in my walls more and more each day

I built the walls to keep him in not to keep him out
