Ever since I could remember
Everything inside of me
Just wanted to fit in
(oh oh oh oh oh)
I was never one for pretenders
Everything I tried to be

Just wouldn't settle in
(oh oh oh oh oh)
If I told you what I was
Would you turn your back on me?
And if I seem dangerous
Would you be scared?
I get the feeling just because

Everything I touch isn't dark enough
If this problem lies in me
I'm only a man with a candle to guide me
I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me.
A monster, a monster
I've turned into a monster

A monster, a monster
And it keeps getting stronger.
Can I clear my conscience
If I'm different from the rest
Do I have to run and hide?
(oh oh oh oh oh)

I never said that I want this
This burden came to me
And it's made it's home inside
(oh oh oh oh oh)
If I told you what I was
Would you turn your back on me?
And if I seem dangerous

Would you be scared?
I get the feeling just because
Everything I touch isn't dark enough
If this problem lies in me
I'm only a man with a candle to guide me
I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me.
A monster, a monster
I've turned into a monster
A monster, a monster
And it keeps getting stronger.
I'm only a man with a candle to guide me
I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me.
A monster, a monster
I've turned into a monster
A monster, a monster
And it keeps getting stronger.
