My Own Monster Lyrics - Katy Perry

1 I turn my head, there's nothing there

2 All I own is my thoughts for my fears

3 I close the door to keep out the bad

4 I plug my ears to keep out these fears

5 And I cry

6 So hold me close

7 For I'm so tired of holding myself

8 So very tired and tired

9 Tired and tired

10 Just hold me

11 I listen to these voices

12 Or is it this house that's giving me chills

13 As I lie upon this little girls bed?

14 Who's at the door? Who's walking near?

15 Or has my imagination spilled?

16 This little girl all grown up still fears

17 Oh, and I cry

18 So hold me close

19 For I'm so tired of holding myself

20 So very tired and tired

21 Tired and tired

22 Just hold me

23 Where can I go, where can I hide

24 from these evil sufferings?

25 Oh, these images painted on my walls

26 They say there's a place that I can

27 hide in the shadow of your wings

28 Oh Lord, bring me to this place of refuge

29 No more tears

30 So hold me close

31 For I'm so tired of holding myself

32 So very tired and tired

33 Tired and tired

34 Just hold me
