An Invisible Monster Approaches - Jack Dangers

When you face the creature That waits beneath your bed Will you stare into its eyes or look away? Running toward the fire Or fleeing from the flame The choice to seek or hide is yours to make The serpent inside Wrapping its tail around my neck I'm buried alive Dying to take another breath Invisible monster Always felt but never seen Unwelcome presence refusing to leave Invisible monster Hiding, never showing its face Feeding on irrational fear Thoughts race at a feverish pace Soaring on a flight of ideas Perched on its victim's shoulder Whispering in its ear Things that may never happen Worries too much to bear Invisible monster Always felt but never seen Unwelcome presence refusing to leave Invisible monster Invisible monster Always felt but never seen Unwelcome presence refusing to leave Invisible monster Beast that dwells inside my mind Give up your hold let me take back control Invisible monster Invisible monster

Countersuit against the restaurant dude Accusing you of everything you never did do Some people find it easier to dish it out to others Than eat it themselves and pay for their mothers Put up your dukes and always try to tell the truth Dressing up a lie in white don't make it right Don't ask why you gotta eat a humble pie Just be a good sport and an upright guy The Golden Rule, the king of the fools Try to be impressive but you fall in the pool Jumping Jack Flash, running out of gas Living like you're graded on a curve But you fail or you pass Damage control, is your heart getting cold Kneeling at the altar trying-a sell out your soul Saturday women and a forty-dollar steak Sunday morning singing high praise Proving that you're no more than a paperback kid Wearing on your collar that fraternity bid But counting a keg stand don't make you a real man Looking in hindsight, you'll understand The Golden Rule, the king of the fools Try to be impressive but you fall in the pool Jumping Jack Flash, running out of gas Living like you're graded on a curve But you fail or you pass The Golden Rule, the king of the fools Try to be impressive but you fall in the pool Jumping Jack Flash, running out of gas Living like you're graded on a curve
