Monster In Me

Versuri

[Verse 1] I come up from the floorboards Mud on my knees Cold in my teeth Got a grin full of keys Mama locked the pantry Left the chain on tight I learned how to feed When the moon got white I don’t need sleep I don’t need grace I hear my own name In a rusted place Black boots scrape On the cellar tile I wear my hunger Like a wedding smile [Pre-Chorus] Say my name low If you want that smoke One bad step And the whole room broke Hands on the door Hearts in the frame You called for a monster Now it knows your name [Chorus] Monster, monster You made me, monster Monster, monster Now I’m right here Monster, monster Keep that same posture Monster, monster I don’t play fair [Verse 2] Chain-link jaw And a bone-dry laugh I count your sins In a notebook tab Red on the cuffs From a midnight run You blink too slow And the work gets done I don’t want peace I want the proof I want your lies In a broken tooth Step in the dark Hear that floorboard moan That ain’t a ghost That’s my house, my throne [Pre-Chorus] Say my name low If you want that smoke One bad step And the whole room broke Hands on the door Hearts in the frame You called for a monster Now it knows your name [Chorus] Monster, monster You made me, monster Monster, monster Now I’m right here Monster, monster Keep that same posture Monster, monster I don’t play fair [Bridge] [Half-time] I wore your fear like a second skin I learned that grin from the shape I’m in If I look gone, I’m closer than you think One cold breath and the whole room sinks [Chorus] Monster, monster You made me, monster Monster, monster Now I’m right here Monster, monster Keep that same posture Monster, monster I don’t play fair
