about

I had a book when I was young, ‘There’s a Monster at the End of This Book’. I couldn’t not turn the pages despite Grover’s displeasure. Tried to use the same concept here. It started as a children’s song but then I went another route and gave it a shot. So here’s one for the battered women in the world to hopefully inspire them to rise above. I have no idea who would do this but it should be a female artist.

lyrics

There’s a Monster at the End of This Song

I’m gonna smile again
I’m not gonna fall again
I’m gonna be strong
There’s a Monster at the End of This Song

You’re not gonna hit me anymore
You started this war
I’m not just a hole to throw your trash in
I won’t take it anymore
You’ve awakened the sleeping giant
You might want to run
I’m gonna rise out of the sea
And rain down on you
You’re not gonna beat me

There’s a Monster at the End of This Song
And I’m way beyond just trying to get along
I’m gonna smile again
I’m not gonna fall again
I’m gonna be strong
There’s a Monster at the End of This Song

Well my rage is so much bigger
Than the abuse that you deliver
The oppression’s in the past
Now it’s time to break the glass
You’re gonna wish you ran away
From somebody’s baby girl
You’re gonna have some shock & awe
When the giant claw comes down and changes your world

There’s a Monster at the End of This Song
And I’m way beyond just trying to get along
I’m gonna smile again
I’m not gonna fall again
There’s a Monster at the End of This Song

By the time this song is through
I’m gonna know just what to do
I’m not alone and I can win
I refuse to ever let it happen again

You can hear me getting closer from miles away
And remembering every blow
I’ll spread my wings
This will be the final day

There’s a Monster at the End of This Song
And I’m way beyond just trying to get along
I’m gonna smile again
I’m not gonna fall again
There’s a Monster at the End of This Song

I’m gonna smile again
I’m not gonna fall again
I’m gonna be strong
There’s a Monster at the End of This Song
