I would rather listen to Elton John, the Queen of England than this abomination of a song.
If Elton John covered it, would he change the lyric from “gripping” to “biting”?

"Monsters don't lurk beneath our beds, they nest in the unlit corners of our minds, feeding on fear, doubt, and unresolved pain. They are the shadows of our unspoken insecurities, the haunting whispers of our failures, and the weight of the expectations we could not meet. To confront them is not to slay a mythical beast, but to stand against the very essence of what keeps us paralyzed in fear and hesitation.
Motivation begins with recognition, acknowledging the monster for what it truly is, a fragmented reflection of the struggles you've survived and the battles you've yet to win. It grows with the understanding that these internal demons are not undefeatable, they are challenges calling for transformation. Summon your courage not to run, but to stare into the abyss of your darkest thoughts and say, 'You do not own me.'
Each step forward, no matter how small, is a weapon forged from resilience. Each action taken despite fear chips away at the grip of these monsters. You are not meant to cower in their shadow, you are meant to rise, using them as fuel for your fire. Where they thrive on stagnation, you flourish through momentum. Start today, start now, prove to the monsters in your head that they were never the masters of your story, only fleeting villains meant to strengthen the hero within."
