Lyrics
Broke old toy soldiers lined up one, two, three
Little kid and everything I did just to save my paper queen
'Cause love won't let me go
Yeah, no army's gonna save my soul
'Cause love won't let me go
Mm, nothing in the closet
Nothing underneath the bed
Just the monsters in your head
I hear strange voices at every step I take
No, you can't cross the ocean if you can't get past the break
Even if fear don't put you down
Won't you lean on me while I'm around
Oh, no rope to hang the dead
No line to save the drowning man
Just the monsters in your head
Nothing in the closet
Nothing underneath the bed
Just the monsters in your head
See killer's eyes and painted faces
The Devil wants your soul, but Jesus saves
Traffic jam is an angry maze
The Devil wants your soul, but Jesus saves
Chutes and ladders, pick-up sticks
Counting cars and counting bricks
Driving past the ol' five-and-dime
Can't get nothin' for a nickel since a long, long time
I won't let you down
Mm, nothing in the closet
Nothing underneath your bed
Just the monsters in your head
Ooh, no rope to hang the dead
No line to save the drowning man
Just the monsters in your head
Mm, love won't let you go
Love won't let you go
