[Verse 1] I was soft once, I used to believe Held out my hands, wore my heart on my sleeve But faith turns to ashes when trust is betrayed Each word you twisted just chipped me away You built me up just to tear me down A queen with no throne, a fool with a crown I swallowed the lies, they burned in my chest You called it love, but it read like a test [Pre-Chorus] One strike too many, hope came too late My heart turned to stone under all of the weight The moment it broke, the moment I changed No going back, no one left to blame [Chorus] You made me a monster, now you can’t look away All the lies you fed me built me this way Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… You broke me, you shook me, you left me to burn I learned your tricks, now it’s my turn I'll pay you back the debt you've earned Now I've become the monster... Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… [Instrumental Solo] [Verse 2] Love’s just a story they sell to the blind A mask for the sorrow they’re desperate to hide Family, friends, every bond turns to dust When all that’s left behind is pain and mistrust I don’t need saving, don’t ask me to pray The meaning you seek only rots and decays I’ve seen what we are when the curtains are drawn A monster, a monster, I’ve been one all along [Pre-Chorus] One strike too many, hope came too late My heart turned to stone under all of the weight The moment it broke, the moment I changed No going back, no one left to blame [Chorus] You made me a monster, now you can’t look away All the lies you fed me built me this way Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… You broke me, you shook me, you left me to burn I learned your tricks, now it’s my turn I'll pay you back the debt you've earned Now I've become the monster... Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… [Instrumental Solo] [Bridge] Monster… Monster… Monster… you made me, now you watch me break Monster… nothing left, nothing more to take Monster… Monster… Monster… all your rules, all your lies Monster… I don’t care, I don’t apologize [Instrumental Solo] Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] You made me a monster, now you can’t look away All the lies you fed me built me this way Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… You broke me, you shook me, you left me to burn I learned your tricks, now it’s my turn I'll pay you back the debt you've earned Now I've become the monster... Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… Monster… [Outro] Now I’m the monster And I’ll never be afraid
