Monsters

1. Simmer down
Says the angel on your shoulder
Louder now says the fire at your neck.

But I know you much better
You wouldn't play with a flame
Watch it burn, watch it flicker
Till its something that you can tame.

Hear the ghosts as they assemble in the evening
Whispering yes they're calling out your name.

Well if you weren't such a coward
Get up from under your bed
And tell me what it is your after
That's when you looked up at me and said.

[Chours:]
Well I'm just a monster
Hiding from sighting till someone comes my way
I'm just a monster
No one will stay cause I scare them all away
I'm just a lonely, leery, weary soul who's longing for a heart
No, you're no monster
You're still afraid of the dark.

2. Tell me now
What's this spell that i've been under
Help me out," you asked with hunger in your eyes
For if love is the answer I was damned from the start
Who could love this disaster I'm just a body, no beating heart.

Cause I'm just a monster
Hiding from sighting 'till someone comes my way
I'm just a monster
No one will stay cause I scare them all away.

[Chours:]
