Monster

[chorus] [female] You twist the knife But I take the fall Somehow I’m always the one to lose it all You fucked my life You took my pride But still I stay Do you even see the monster you’ve made? [rap] [male] Every time you kiss me, your presence holds me firm But every time I miss you, I know my feelings aren’t returned You pull me from the ashes just to sit and watch me burn Cause every scar’s a lesson that you know I’ll never learn Your love is a ghost, haunting everything I do I’m always reaching out, but you’re just slipping through, My fingers like I’m reaching for sand in a tide, Grasping for the pieces, but never to find. I know you’ll always leave me and I’m just wasting my time, So I just take another sip and fill the page with these rhymes You’re fading like the shadows, you’re slipping away, boy, But I keep chasing ghosts, I guess that’s what I was made for [chorus] [female] You twist the knife But I take the fall Somehow I’m always the one to lose it all You fucked my life You took my pride But still I stay Do you even see the monster you’ve made? You’ve made [rap] [male] Remember back in high school you would always hold my hand? But your love was a trap, it pulled me in like quicksand You said you’d always love me and you’d always be my fan But I was only just a stranger, never part of your plan You built me up so high, just to watch me crash land Left me searching for the pieces of the person that I am Now I’m stranded in the wasteland where you used to stand Never free, still a puppet to your every command [bridge] [female] And honestly, it’s bad for me, this poison I adore Cause even though you’re killing me, I’ll keep coming back for more [buildup] [female] Ooooh Ooooohhhh [chorus] [female] You twist the knife But I take the fall Somehow I’m always the one to lose it all You fucked my life You took my pride But still I stay Do you even see the monster you’ve made? The monster you’ve made [chorus] [female and male] You twist the knife (YOU TWIST THE KNIFE!!) But I take the fall (I always take the fall) Somehow I’m always the one to lose it all (LOSE IT ALL!!!) You fucked my life (You fucked my liiiiife) You took my pride (You took my pride) But still I stay (STAAAAAAYYY!!!!) Do you even see the monster you’ve made? The monster you’ve made (You’ve maaaade!!) (You made)

Long story short, I’m in a car. I look around I’ve gone too far here I’m sitting, I wanna sleep, but now I can’t, and I’m forced to steep. 6 hours ago I made myself feel I’ll find the truth and all that’s real. It’s not out of fear, but I can’t be here, let’s go for a sprint or go for a ride come on please get up and go, I do wanna vibe but not like this. Not sit in the car and have a talk. Let’s go outside and go for a walk! Let’s do something crazy anything but sit for I fear any longer and I’ll be in a fit, For some reason I won’t tell you that now I’m forced to deal With the way that I feel because I did this just for today. I tried to pave this amazing way for a good time, but it seems to me all I could find. Was wondering why I’m still here what am I doing? these questions I fear with deafening silence, this unknowing penance . There’s so many words All being said, but they’re all spoken inside my head conversations without sound In my mind being drowned Im thinking for you and how you feel and if this is something u wanna do are you bored? Did you want more What can I do to accommodate? Am I too late? Why do I cave for someone like you? I just wanna rave, but not you To get my words to come out right my mental dialogue. I must fight now I’m exhausted and feel like a husk like someone who’s dead just before dusk. My mind is empty and you wanna talk I can’t form opinions, but I can walk Any conversation is only one sided because by a chemical I have been blinded

[Verse] Nobody else can tell you how to play You gotta scream those lines and make them stay In your head they'll rock and sway Wanna hear you shout it every day [Verse 2] Living through the noise and the shouting Life's a stage let's stop all the doubting Crank it up no more pouting Everyone can hear our groove sprouting [Chorus] Gotta make your own kind of music Louder than the world outside Every tune's gotta be an amusement No rules to this musical ride [Verse 3] Bass is thumping making hearts tremble All the silence we will disassemble Every chord makes bodies tremble On every stage we will assemble [Bridge] So sing out loud even in the dark Feel the rush it's your own spark Let the power of your voice mark A revolution we will embark [Chorus] Gotta make your own kind of music Louder than the world outside Every tune's gotta be an amusement No rules to this musical ride

[Verse 1] I’m a ghost in the glow of your shadow, Tracing lines you left on my heart. Every scar is a map to the hollow, A fragile reminder that we fell apart. The whispers scream louder than silence, A violent calm before the collapse. We’re treading the edges of blindness, The truth is a blade that I can’t ungrasp. [Pre-Chorus] Pull me closer, tear me open, Let the light inside decay. You’re the storm that left me broken, But I still crave the rain. [Chorus] Shatter me like glass, let the pieces burn, Fragments of the sun in every twist and turn. We’re running from the fire, but we’re breathing in the ash, Every step is fleeting, but the echoes crash. [Verse 2] Your voice cuts the air like a siren, It pulls me deeper into the tide. Drowning slow in the weight of the violence, A melody wrapped in the venom you hide. The hours bend, but the wounds stay sharp, Time is a liar with a lover’s face. Your name’s a mantra tearing me apart, A cruel symphony I can’t replace. [Pre-Chorus] Pull me closer, tear me open, Let the light inside decay. You’re the storm that left me broken, But I still crave the rain. [Chorus] Shatter me like glass, let the pieces burn, Fragments of the sun in every twist and turn. We’re running from the fire, but we’re breathing in the ash, Every step is fleeting, but the echoes crash. [Bridge - Screamo] (Screamed) Will you break me? Or save me?! We’re circling the void— Can you hear the noise?! (Clean vocals join in) It’s the sound of our despair, Crumbling in the open air. A thousand voices, none compare, To the way you tore me there. [Instrumental - Progressive Rock Breakdown] (Features complex time signatures, alternating between clean and distorted guitar melodies, with heavy percussion and a soaring ambient synth line.) [Final Chorus] Shatter me like glass, let the pieces burn, Fragments of the sun in every twist and turn. We’re running from the fire, but we’re breathing in the ash, Every step is fleeting, but the echoes crash. (Screamed) The echoes crash! (Clean vocals) Fragments of the sun… (Screamed) Burning in my hands! [Outro] I’m a ghost in the glow of your shadow, But even ghosts need to breathe. Every scar is a map that I follow, To the wreckage we used to be.
