Finding God In The Music | 2023: Monsters

August 20, 2023 • Brian Zahnd

Monsters

Dave Matthews Band


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

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

Nothing in the closet

Nothing underneath your bed

Just the monsters in your head

No rope to hang the dead

No line to save the drowning man

Just the monsters in your head

Love won't let you go

Love won't let you go
