~#**************#~
Ever since I could remember
~#**************#~
Everything inside of me
~#**************#~
Just wanted to fit in (Oh, oh, oh)
~#**************#~
I was never one for pretenders
~#**************#~
Everything I tried to be
~#**************#~
Just wouldnt settle in (Oh, oh, oh)
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
If I told you what I was
~#**************#~
Would you turn your back on me?
~#**************#~
And if I seemed dangerous
~#**************#~
Would you be scared?
~#**************#~
I get the feeling just because
~#**************#~
Everything I touch isnt dark enough
~#**************#~
That this problem lies in me
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Im only a man with a candle to guide me
~#**************#~
Im taking a stand to escape whats inside me
~#**************#~
A monster, a monster
~#**************#~
Ive turned into a monster
~#**************#~
A monster, a monster
~#**************#~
And it keeps getting stronger
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Can I clear my conscience
~#**************#~
If Im different from the rest?
~#**************#~
Do I have to run and hide? (Oh, oh, oh)
~#**************#~
I never said that I want this
~#**************#~
This burden came to me
~#**************#~
And its made its home inside (Oh, oh, oh)
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
If I told you what I was
~#**************#~
Would you turn your back on me?
~#**************#~
And if I seemed dangerous
~#**************#~
Would you be scared?
~#**************#~
I get the feeling just because
~#**************#~
Everything I touch isnt dark enough
~#**************#~
That this problem lies in me
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Im only a man with a candle to guide me
~#**************#~
Im taking a stand to escape whats inside me
~#**************#~
A monster, a monster
~#**************#~
Ive turned into a monster
~#**************#~
A monster, a monster
~#**************#~
And it keeps getting stronger
~#**************#~
[Instrumental Interlude]
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Im only a man with a candle to guide me
~#**************#~
Im taking a stand to escape whats inside me
~#**************#~
A monster, a monster
~#**************#~
Ive turned into a monster
~#**************#~
A monster, a monster
~#**************#~
And it keeps getting stronger
