Ever since I could remember, War is what made my heart beat A soldier to the end Then there was the day that I saw you Like the lighthouse in a storm That lit the dark within
But you didn’t know what I was Though I thought you’d calmed the sea I just couldn’t hide my scars I was naïve… And no matter how much I love It wasn’t enough to cover up What was lying just beneath…
I’ve done what I can just to keep you beside me, Escape while we can, run away from this tragedy,
A monster, a monster, I’m nothing but a monster A monster, a monster, Is all that’s lasted after…
Now is this my sentence? To exist among the dead. Like the sins I’m trapped inside… And though I know that I deserve this, Will I ever get to sleep. Without gazing in those eyes…
If I told you what I was, Would you turn and flee from me? Cause if I seem dangerous It’s cause I am… But to watch the best of us, Be lost in the death and the dark is just Far too much for me to see…
I’ve done what I can as you’ll always remind me, To march and stand, as your wishes would guide me,
A monster, a monster, I’m nothing but a monster A monster, a monster, Is all that’s lasted after…
[Ooh Solo]
With all that I am I, I would you hold beside me, I’m trying to fight, but these years still haunt me,
A monster, a monster, I’m nothing but a monster A monster, a monster, Is all that’s lasted after…
