Dream Theater - Invisible Monster

[Verse 1]
Em
— When you face the creature
Am Em
That waits beneath your bed
Am Em
Will you stare into its eyes or look away?
Em
— Running toward the fire
Am Em
Or fleeing from the flame
Am Em
The choice to seek or hide is yours to make

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm D
— The serpent inside
Em Eb Gm
— Wrapping its tail around my neck
D
I’m buried alive
Eb Cm Am
— Dying to take another breath

[Chorus]
D
Invisible monster
F G
Always felt but never seen
Dm Bm Bb Eb
Unwelcome presence refusing to leave
Em
Invisible monster

[Verse 2]
Em Bm
Hi-ding, never showing its face
Am Em
Feeding on irrational fear
Em Bm
Thoughts race at a feverish pace
F D
Soaring on a flight of ideas

[Pre-Chorus]
G A
Perched on its victim’s shoulder
Cm G
Whispering in its ear
Gm Em
Things that may never happen
Eb Dsus4
Worries too much to bear
