Something I Could Keep

Verse 1

You showed up quiet at my door

Said you were something I could keep

I let you curl up on the rug

And now you're sleeping in too deep

Pre-Chorus

I made you gentle in my mind

Taught you the sound of my name

But something scratching at the window

Doesn't want to be tamed

Chorus

You're my monster

You're my monster

I keep you warm I keep you fed

You're my monster

You're my monster

And I still want you in my bed

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Still want you still want you

Oh-oh oh-oh

Still want you

Verse 2

Your teeth are pretty when you smile

Your shadows follow me to work

I braid your hair I lock the door

I don't remember what it's worth

Pre-Chorus

They tell me run they tell me hide

They don't know how you hold me tight

The terrifying part is simple

I don't want to be right

Chorus

You're my monster

You're my monster

I keep you warm I keep you fed

You're my monster

You're my monster

And I still want you in my bed

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Still want you still want you

Oh-oh oh-oh

Still want you

Bridge

Maybe love is just a choice

To hold the ugly and the sweet

Maybe I am the one who's wild

For finding comfort underneath

Chorus

You're my monster

You're my monster

I keep you warm I keep you fed

You're my monster

You're my monster

And I still want you in my bed

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Still want you still want you

Oh-oh oh-oh

Still want you
