In all my story books

The hero slayed the beast

I wanted to save the world

From all the wicked things

Creatures of the night

That live to steal your soul

I’d be there to protect you

Had it all under control

But I got a little older

Things began to change 

Looked into the mirror

Glowing eyes

Bloody fangs

Strange

Am I the monster?

The one I always feared

Am I the monster?

The truth is not so clear

Could I be the monster I never wanted to be?

Maybe I’m the monster

And the monster is me

Call it coincidence

I woke up at the scene

Made it out alive

A victim of your scheme

The night it grew colder 

The town began to sleep

I saw the full moon rising 

Can’t remember too much of anything

Am I the monster, The one I always feared

Am I the monster, The truth is not so clear

Could I be the monster I never wanted to be

Maybe I’m the monster and the monster is me

I am the monster, The one I always feared 

I am the monster, How did I get here

I am the monster, I never wanted to be

I am the monster, So why would you save me?
