When we were kids, we feared the dark We thought the monsters were hiding there In the cracks of doors Lurking beneath our beds, waiting to scare We always thought monsters Had horrible faces to terrify us Imagined they lived in the shadows Hidden in the dark, waiting for a slip-up But the truth is far more frightening It's so different from what we believed They're often right in front of us Monster, it's what I see, monster It was always right in front of me Just look in the mirror, and there it'll be Monster It's what I see, monster It's more terrifying than we imagined We grew up fearing we'd meet monsters But sometimes, our actions turn us into one And when we're not the monsters, we meet some And unlike what we thought, most of them Have a charming face and deceive us so well They get into our minds And make our nightmares real Monster, it's what I see, monster It was always right in front of me Just look in the mirror, and there it'll be Monster Monster Monster Monster It's what I see, monster Monster, it's what I see, monster It was always right in front of me Just look in the mirror, and there it'll be Monster Monster It's what I see, monster
