The Monster
(verse 1)
Fingers are pointing at me
Each one screams with animoscity
How is it that you have so many hands?
Perhaps it's just another lie, conjured up in my mind
Your words or brutality are leaving me blind
All along, unaware of what you are hating
I feel my worth slowly dissipating
(chorus)
For I cannot see the monster within
And I cannot see this so-called "sin"
You labelled me a liar
Yet I was the pacifier
So burn me with your anger
Set my soul ablaze
I'm withering under your frozen gaze
You left me here wondering
"Am I really that evil after all?"
(verse 2)
Faces around me are blurred
Yet yours sticks out like
A thorn set in flowers
Tempting me to recoil
As my mind, it devours
So ignorant of the scars left behind
And the cuts that are bleeding
The one's you'll never find
But you're not looking
Your face has turned away
Your words seem so brave
Yet you hide by night, and shun by day
(chorus)
For I cannot see the monster within
And I cannot see this so-called "sin"
You labelled me a liar
Yet I was the pacifier
So burn me with your anger
Set my soul ablaze
I'm withering under your frozen gaze
You left me here wondering
"Am I really that evil after all?"
You kicked me 'till I crawl
We watch the monster fall
