The Monster Is Me
Unveiling the Inner Monster: A Song of Self-Reflection
Lyrics
Let's get to the point and skip the pleasantries please
Expressing a desire to be direct and skip formalities.
With self inflicted wounds, you're not fooling me
Recognizing self-inflicted wounds, seeing through deception.
And I hate what we have become, apathetic
Expressing hatred for the current state of apathy.
Disheartened, I'm not the only one
Feeling disheartened, realizing others share the sentiment.
You're the master of puppets but I pull the strings
Acknowledging control over the situation despite external influence.
With your feelings of hatred projected at me
Confronting hatred projected by someone else.
I can't help you escape from this permanent hell
Unable to help someone escape their self-imposed misery.
This foundation you've laid
Referring to a foundation of negative actions or choices.
And you've done it to yourself
Taking responsibility for one's own situation.
Tell me your excuses and stop stuttering please
Asking for explanations without hesitation.
If this is what you want then take it
Accepting the consequences if this is what is desired.
But I see you're stalling, it's all your fault your falling
Noticing hesitation and attributing fault to the person hesitating.
Just shut your mouth and stay away from me, I can't
Expressing the need for distance due to potential harm.
Help you heal your scares if you're a violent disease
Unable to assist in healing if the person is a source of violence.
You infect me like a cancer but it's all because I want it
Accepting the negative influence willingly, haunted by it.
I can't hide the fact I'm haunted, if this is who I am
Acknowledging and confronting the haunting aspect of oneself.
Then the monster is really me
Accepting that the speaker is the true monster in their identity.
I'm sick of these imposters, the mirror image of ourselves
Expressing frustration with fake versions of oneself.
Like I've had it with this trauma
Tired of dealing with emotional pain or suffering.
I get hung up on myself, but I don't need the hesitation
Expressing a lack of need for hesitation or indecision.
I'm apathetic anyway, you can't hold my will for ransom
Being apathetic despite potential consequences.
When I gave it all away, I'm free, I'm free
Feeling liberated after giving everything away.
The horror of nothing is swallowing me
Experiencing a profound emptiness or horror.
Tell me your excuses and stop stuttering please
Repeating the desire for straightforward explanations.
If this is what you want then take it
Reiterating acceptance of consequences if desired.
But I see you're stalling, it's all your fault your falling
Noticing hesitation again and attributing responsibility.
Just shut your mouth and stay away from me, I can't
Emphasizing the need for distance due to potential harm.
Help you heal your scares if you're a violent disease
Repeating the inability to help if there's violent negativity.
You infect me like a cancer but it's all because I want it
Accepting the willingly embraced negative influence.
I can't hide the fact I'm haunted, if this is who I am
Reiterating the acknowledgment and confrontation of personal haunting.
Then the monster is really me
Reaffirming the admission of being the true monster within.
I'm a monster, break free, break free
Affirming oneself as a monster and expressing the desire to break free.
You're the master of puppets but I pull the strings
Repeating the notion of controlling the situation despite external influence.
With your feelings of hatred projected at me
Recalling the projection of hatred and the need for distance.
I can't help you escape from this permanent hell
Reiterating the inability to help escape self-inflicted misery.
And you've done it to yourself
Reiterating self-responsibility for the established foundation.
Lock up all your secrets, keep them tight to your teeth
Advising to keep personal secrets hidden tightly.
If this is what you want then keep it buried beneath
Reiterating acceptance if this is the desired situation.
I'm falling, and I'm still haunted, I will never be free
Expressing ongoing struggle and haunting, accepting fate.
this is my fate it seems
Accepting a predetermined fate of being haunted.
Break me into pieces, just give me a reason
Expressing a desire for a reason to break into pieces.
I'll make you believe it, I'm still running from myself
Committing to convincing others while avoiding oneself.
Now you'll finally see, you'll scream you'll cry
Anticipating a reaction to the revelation of being the true monster.
You'll beg, you'll plead, that the monster is me
Describing the expected emotional response to realizing the speaker is the monster.
