Monster
I'm the first born evil
I'm the light of the sun
both opposing forces
combined as one.
I'm there in your nightmares
I'm the inspiration for your dreams
and when I finally reveal myself
you'll be awakened by your screams.
I'm the voices in your head
when you're standing on a building
that encourage you to jump
and put an end to all these feelings
when you get your heart broken.
I'm the pain that lingers
or when you play with knives
I'm the slip of your fingers.
I poison all the good things
and I fill your mind with hate
I'm the acid in your saliva
when you spit in some-one's face.
And I'm the only one who'll be there
to support you late at night
when you're contemplating suicide
I'll tell you that you're right.
If you're looking for an answer
you'll find me hidden inside
I'm strength, I'm discipline
and in your heart I reside.
I'm a prayer in the darkness
reaching toward the light
I'll be your clenched fists
when you have to stand and fight.
I'll help you up on your feet
and stand tall against oppression
I'll make you question everything
like it was your obsession.
I'm your greatest weapon
so use me every day
I'm your ability to think for yourself
and you will never lose your way.
I'm god, I'm the devil
and you may not believe in me
but that doesn't mean I don't exist
living inside you infinitely.
I'm your fear, I'm your happiness
I'm your survival instincts too
look inside and know yourself
and you'll see that I am you.
