Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Started as the rescue call
First in, last out, gave it all
Pulled ’em from the flames, didn’t count the scars
They wrote my name in their little gold stars
Mama said "be good, they’ll be good to you"
Guess she never met the wolves in my crew
Shook my hand while they sharpened their teeth
Smile so sweet with a knife underneath
Did favors, did damage to keep ’em safe
Took blame that was never my mistake
Every "thank you" felt thin like glass
Shattered fast when the tide turned at last
One lie
Turned a halo to a target on my back
Every whispered word a match
Yeah, they loved me till they learned I wouldn’t crack
[Chorus]
You made the monster you pray away
Fed it my trust, then you walked away
I was a hero till you wrote me off
Now I’m the nightmare you called down from above
You drew these horns on my tired head
Built this cage with the words you said
You broke my wings, then you blamed the fall
You made the monster
You made it all
[Verse 2]
Courtroom eyes, all staring the same
Point at me like they forgot my name
The one who bled just to buy ’em time
Now I’m just headlines, one more crime
Friends turned quiet, screens turned black
Every open door slammed at my back
They rewrote the story to save their skins
Left me buried in the footnotes of their sins
So I stopped trying to fit their script
Let the hurt drip slow from a bitten lip
If I’m the villain in the tale you sell
Then I’ll dig my own throne in this private hell
You wanted a beast, now you scared of the growl (yeah)
Wanted a king, now you kneel to the howl
Every scar that you traced on my chest
Is a vow that I’ll never be your puppet again
[Chorus]
You made the monster you pray away
Fed it my trust, then you walked away
I was a hero till you wrote me off
Now I’m the nightmare you called down from above
You drew these horns on my tired head
Built this cage with the words you said
You broke my wings, then you blamed the fall
You made the monster
You made it all
[Bridge]
No capes left hanging in my room (nah)
Just the echoes of "too soon"
If saving you means losing me
Then burn the book, I’m tearing free
I wore your hope like heavy chains
Now I’m baptized in the rain
If evil’s just a heart misread
Then I’m everything you said
[Chorus]
You made the monster you pray away
Fed it my trust, then you walked away
I was a hero till you wrote me off
Now I’m the nightmare you called down from above
You drew these horns on my tired head
Built this cage with the words you said
You broke my wings, then you blamed the fall
You made the monster
You made it all (yeah)
