Lycidas Blackhart I Am Monster Lyrics

[verse 1]
Behind those eyes you're scared as hell.
Look inside yourself, your heart's paralyzed,
Are you gonna run away from me?
So you said you wanna love me.
It's okay, cause I'm afraid too
If I let you in please don't run.

[chorus]
Cut me open and dig right through
I'll mask the monster cause you'll end up hating
Everything that I hate inside of me,
When all I want is for you to love me as a human.

[verse 2]
I painted this story,
Inside of my own mind that leads me to you,
Through the roads and seas.
To stitch those scars that's across your heart.
It's like that around mine too.
Cause maybe we're both alike inside.
Let's fix each other.

[chorus]
Cut me open and dig right through
I'll mask the monster, cause you'll end up hating, Everything that I hate inside of me,
When all I want is for you to love me as a human.

[verse 3]
Baby we've all made mistakes.
No one's a saint it's okay.
I'm glad you didn't run away,
The day I shared everything,
And finally we're just staring right now

Relationships are overrated,
There are others ways to heal.
As scared as I get.
But In your arms I'll feel so loved,
In my arms you'll feel alive.
And now I'm addicted to you.
I've never felt so damn loved.

[chorus]
Cut me open and dig right through
You've seen the truth now you'd end up loving
Everything that I shown inside of me,
When all you wanted was,
To love the real me.
