[English]

I see your monsters

I see your pain

Tell me your problems

I'll chase them away

I'll be your lighthouse

I'll make it okay

When I see your monsters

I'll stand there so brave

And chase them all away

In the dark we, we, we

Stand apart we, we

Never see that the things we need

Are staring right at us

You just want to hide, hide, hide

Never show your smile, smile

Stand alone when you need someone

It's the hardest thing of all

That you see are the bad, bad, bad memories

Take your time and you'll find me

I see your monsters

I see your pain

Tell me your problems

I'll chase them away

I'll be your lighthouse

I'll make it okay

When I see your monsters

I'll stand there so brave

And chase them all away

I could see the sky, sky, sky

Beautiful tonight, night

When you breathe why can't you see

That the clouds are in your head

I would stay there, there, there

No need to fear, fear

When you need to talk it out

With someone you can trust

What you see are the bad, bad, bad memories

Take your time and you'll find me

I see your monsters

I see your pain

Tell me your problems

I'll chase them away

I'll be your lighthouse

I'll make it okay

When I see your monsters

I'll stand there so brave

And chase them all away

I'll chase them all away

You've got the chance to see the light

Even in the darkest night

And I will be here like you were for me

So just let me in

Cause I see your monsters

I see your pain

Tell me your problems

I'll chase them away

I'll be your lighthouse

I'll make it okay

When I see your monsters

I'll stand there so brave

I see your monsters

I see your pain (ooh, yeah)

Tell me your problems

I'll chase them away

I'll be your lighthouse

I'll make it okay (I'll make it okay)

When I see your monsters

I'll stand there so brave

And chase them all away
