There's a monster
|
Crawling underneath my skin
|
It lives in the back of your mind
|
|
What are values
|
When it's only you and me
|
Fighting for the rest of our lives?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Don't be afraid of all the fiction in what I do
|
When no one answers, you're moving on and moving out The games we play are set up only so you lose
|
When all the cancer ate up his body, it broke me down
|
|
There's a place where
|
We all go when the light is taken
|
Away from the white of our eyes
|
|
It's not heaven,
|
It's the flat lands
|
There's a field there
|
Where we spend most of our lives
|
|
Do you ever really learn?
|
All your problems are
|
Self induced with easy solutions
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
All true men are monsters
|
A man can't help himself
|
We can hide all we want
|
We are shackled by diplomacy and moral police
|
|
Soon enough the skin will break and let all our demons out
|
They will take our inhibitions hostage and if the demands are not met,
|
We become who we are
|
We will fall apart
|
|
[Chorus]
|
