(my monster, my monster, my monster ... is a part of me) Verse 1 I see it in the mirror when the lights are low, A shadow in the corner where the darkness grows. It whispers in the silence, calls me by my name, But I can’t hide the truth—I’m the one to blame. Pre-Chorus I’ve tried to run, I’ve tried to fight, But it’s always there in the dead of night. Chorus My monster is still a part of me, A ghost in my blood, a storm in my dreams. I can’t cut it out, can’t set it free, ‘Cause my monster is still a part of me. (my monster, my monster, my monster ... is a part of me) Verse 2 It feeds on the anger, it thrives on the pain, A wound that won’t heal, a permanent stain. I wear it like a crown, I wear it like a chain, But without it, would I even know my name? Pre-Chorus I’ve built my walls, I’ve locked the door, But it’s always been here—always more. Chorus My monster is still a part of me, A ghost in my blood, a storm in my dreams. I can’t cut it out, can’t set it free, ‘Cause my monster is still a part of me. It’s still a part of me…(my monster, my monster, my monster ... is a part of me) Pre-Chorus I’ve tried to run, I’ve tried to fight, But it’s always there in the dead of night. Chorus My monster is still a part of me, A ghost in my blood, a storm in my dreams. I can’t cut it out, can’t set it free, ‘Cause my monster is still a part of me. (my monster, my monster, my monster ... is a part of me) Pre-Chorus I’ve built my walls, I’ve locked the door, But it’s always been here—always more. Chorus My monster is still a part of me, A ghost in my blood, a storm in my dreams. I can’t cut it out, can’t set it free, ‘Cause my monster is still a part of me. (my monster, my monster, my monster ... is a part of me) Bridge Maybe I don’t wanna let it go, Maybe it’s the only thing I know. If I kill the beast, who will I be? Just a hollow shell—or finally free? Final Chorus My monster is still a part of me, A ghost in my blood, a storm in my dreams! I won’t cut it out, won’t set it free, ‘Cause my monster is still a part of me! (my monster, my monster, my monster ... is a part of me) Outro It’s still a part of me…(my monster, my monster, my monster ... is a part of me)
