Monster

So close to home now, I see the end

It's been a long road here but I'm not broken yet

I've felt the ugly, and I've tasted hope

I've got a few steps left, but still so far to go (far to go)

I've always thought the only thing between me and the world I've wanted

Is you and all the demons that I've always tried to push away (push away)

And bad as I just wanna cut the corner, I know I'd regret it

You're the ending I gotta face

You're the reason I can't sleep at night

You took my shadow and swallowed the light

You are the monster pulling me deep (pulling me deep)

But now we're down here, eye to eye, I can finally see

The monster is me

The monster is me

Trust me, I've been waiting

Waiting in the dark, waiting for the parts

When you would come down here and see what we've become

You say that I'm a nightmare, the ghost, it's always right there

Of course I'm always right there

'Cause you can't get far if it's you you're running from

You always thought the only thing between you and the world you wanted

Is me and all the problems that you alway tried to push away (push away)

I know you don't believe me but it's honestly so nice to meet you

I'm the real you, you gotta face

I was the reason you can't sleep at night

I took your shadow and swallowed the light

I was the monster pulling you deep (pulling you deep)

But now we're down here, eye to eye, I can finally see

The monster is me

The monster is me

The monster is me

The monster is me, oh

The monster is me
