Monster (monster, monster) Monster (monster, monster) So close to home now I see the end It's been a long road here, but I'm not broken yet I've felt the ugly And I've tasted hope I've got a few steps left, but still so far to go I've always thought the only thing between me and the world I've wanted Is you and all the demons that I've always tried to push away And that is I just wanna cut the corner, I know I regret it You're the ending I've gotta face You were the reason I can't sleep at night You took my shadow And swallowed the light You were the monster Pulling me deep But now we're down here eye to eye, I can finally see The monster is me The monster is me Trust me, I've been waiting Waiting in the dark Waiting for the parts when you would come down here and see what we've become You say that I'm a nightmare The ghost that's always right there Of course I'm always right there Because you can't get far if it's you you're running from You always thought the only thing between you and the world you wanted Is me and all the problems that you've always tried to push away I know you don't believe me but it's honestly so nice to meet you I'm the real you You've gotta face I was the reason You can't sleep at night I took your shadow And swallowed the light I was the monster Pulling you deep But now we're down here eye to eye, I can finally see The monster is me The monster is me (me) The monster is me The monster is me The monster is me
