The medicine within is the voice that always wins
It controls you but takes your pain away

This is real
And you know it is
Can you feel the blood on your fingertips?
Do you have what it takes to save a life?
It's just who we are
We are monsters in the dark at night
Just searching for purpose in shreds of light
The lullabies you sing to me
Lift the burdens you've engraved in me
I can't forget but I'll forgive you for now

This is who we are
Monsters in the dark

Will you lay with me tonight?
Sing me to sleep
Show me how to hold the weight and carry on
Will you lay with me tonight and help me see
Show me all the reasons I should be alive
And just lay with me tonight

The voices that you hear
Are the same ones that you fear
They consume you
And take your life away
Addicted to pain, manufacture a smile
Afraid to come down, you've been gone for a while
I can't forget but I'll forgive you for now

Will you lay with me tonight?
Sing me to sleep
Show me how to hold the weight and carry on
Will you lay with me tonight and help me see
Tell me all the reasons I should be alive
And just lay with me tonight

Just lay with me
Tell me I can fall asleep
Can't take another night awake
Pull the veil over my eyes and let me fall asleep
Let me fall asleep
And just lay with me tonight
