Something's there
Buried deep in the coals
Taking form, so warm, calling your name
Laying bare
Darkest parts of your soul
Reaching out, and now you're playing my game
♪
Lonely weeds welling up from within
Deep inside a tide too strong to be stemmed
Little seed so corrupted with sin
Turn the key and free the beast you've condemned
Put all your plans in my velvety hands
I'm the monster that lives in your head
I can speak in your voice to control every choice
I'm the monster that lives in your head
You're the vessel I need, I don't care if you bleed
I'm the monster that lives in your head
I'll fill you with lies 'til you can't realize
I'm the monster that lives in your head
Is it wrong for the starving to steal?
You've no right to fight the demons you freed
More than strong an obsession so real
You're too blind to find you've followed my lead
You dance on my string, but you can't change a thing
I'm the monster that lives in your head
You think we're a team, but I'm tearing your seams
I'm the monster that lives in your head
You're barely a half, I'm the wheat, you're the chaff
I'm the monster that lives in your head
It's time to carve our every vestige of doubt
I'm the monster that lives in your head
♪
The minions we made, all disgraced and betrayed
I'm the monster I thought you would fear
You simply stood by and you watched them all die
I'm the monster you see in the mirror
The payment comes due, and it comes out of you
I'm the monster you dream of awake
And finally, you'll see all the worst parts of me
I'm the monster you made by mistake
