Monsters Among Us
Unveiling Shadows: Monsters Among UsLyrics
The fairy tales
The conventional stories and narratives
They have you fooled
Deceive or mislead you
You have to fight
You need to struggle
For scraps of good
Struggle for small fragments of goodness
You have to dig deep
You must search deeply
But you won't find treasure They think you exist
No valuable rewards will be found
For their pleasure
Others believe you exist solely for their enjoyment
It's just as scary
Equally frightening when things are visible or known
When the lights are on
Even when everything seems normal
Watch the cockroaches scatter
Observe negative reactions when exposed
I hate to tell you
Reluctantly convey that monsters truly exist
The monsters are real
Evil individuals with harmful intentions
With poison in their tongues And murder in their eyes With sharp looks
Possessing deceitful speech and malicious intent
And crooked smiles
Expressing hostility with twisted expressions
But what lovely teeth they have
Despite their malevolence, they have attractive qualities
I hate to tell you
Regretfully state the harsh reality of the world
This world is cruel
The world is harsh and unforgiving
The fairy tales
The traditional tales provided false information
They lied to you
Monsters are genuine and pervasive
The monsters are all too real They come from all sides
They come from various directions
You don't have to look far
No need to search extensively, they are nearby
You just have to say Hi
A simple greeting can reveal their true nature
To your neighbor
Your neighbor may be one of them
They find power in deflection They see weakness in reflections
They gain strength from diverting attention
You won't find them under your bed Or hiding in your closet
They aren't hiding in traditional places
Or in your head
They are not imaginary or psychological
They drip with privilege
Exuding entitlement in formal attire
In suits and ties
They will degrade you with a pleasant demeanor
They'll call you a prostitute
Labeling and demeaning individuals with a grin
With a smile
They view women as objects to be won
They see women
Perceive women as conquests
As a prize
Attractive qualities despite their malicious nature
But they don't just come out at night What lovely teeth they have
They are not confined to nocturnal activities
The better
Enhanced features for preying on vulnerabilities
To prey on you
Exploit weaknesses for their advantage
To make you think it's your fault To make you think you're wrong To make you think you're crazy To make you think it's your fault
Manipulate to make victims feel responsible
But it's not your fault
Reassurance that blame doesn't lie with the victim
Monsters are real
Confirmation that monsters exist in reality
Just look to your left
Monsters are not distant; they are close
Just look to your right
Be vigilant, as they are everywhere
Just say Hi to your neighbor What lovely teeth they have
A simple greeting may reveal their true nature
