monsters beneath your bed
Father: Darling there are no monsters beneath your bed,
 Darling kick that thought right out of your head,
 there'll be plenty of things for you to be scared of in the future,
 but for now, there are no monsters beneath your bed
 
 Sweetheart, your toys just are not alive,
 sweetheart keep that thought clear of your mind
 there will be plenty of things for you to believe in, in the future
 but for now your toys just are not alive
 
 Baby, nothing will get you in the dark,
 please believe me with all of your heart
 there will be plenty of things you won't see coming in the future 
 but for now, nothing will get you in the dark
 
 Honey i have something i need to say
 your mother and i do not love each other in the same way
 she has her needs and i have mine
 and things will never be the same again
 
 Mother: Darling, you did not just see that chair leap
 Darling, try your hardest to get some sleep
 there will be plenty of things that will leave you in awe 
 but for now, that chair did not leap
 
 Sweetheart, no one is waiting outside
 Sweetheart, try your best not to cry
 there will be plenty of times that will leave you upset
 but for now there is no one outside
 
 Baby, there are no voices inside your head
 baby , please remember all of the things i have said
 there will be plenty of things you'll want to unhear in the future
 but for now there are no voices in your head
 
 honey, there is something i need to tell you
 the secrets have changed the man i knew 
 so for now your toys are more than alive
 you should be terrified of the dark and people waiting outside
 pay attention to every single voice in your head
 because your father will become the monster beneath your bed
