There he stands in the darkness
Waiting for the chance to pounce
Making sure no one hears
Him creeping around the house
In the shadows of my room
Is where you lived and thrived
And in those dark shadows
Is where my innocence died
Eventually I managed to learn
To find solace inside my mind
I found my personal paradise
One that you'll never find
You had control for a while
Even my mother couldn't resist
She was blinded by the charms
That came from your narrow lips
Your blood flows through my veins
But I promise to break the mold
I can not allow your venom
To envelop me and take hold
I became a maven
At hiding all that was me
I could never show how broken I was
That part of me you will never see
The time finally came
To face the monster under my bed
But something more galling than that
Fighting the demons in my head
You really did a number on me
And I've fought hard to overcome
The demons that still linger
I will conquer them, one by one
So do what you will
Just remember this one thing
You can't hurt me anymore
This Bee packs a hell of a sting
It has been difficult
And I wish this was all just a fable
But I think I've finally beat the monster
That used to sit at the head of the table
