(Verse 1)I remember the day that I invited you inYou wore an angel’s face beneath a charming grinI was blind to the shadows, I was deaf to the spinBelieving every promise, where do I begin?You held me so gently, or so it appearedBut the man that I loved was the ghost that I feared.(Pre-Chorus)Bit by bit, the mask starts to slideRevealing the hollow space where you hideI look in your eyes, and to my surpriseThere’s nothing but darkness and cold compromise.(Chorus)You’re a monster wrapped up in a lover’s disguiseA beautiful trap built of selfish liesYou leave a wide path of destruction and painAnd you never apologize, you just look at the rainOh, you love the ruins, you love the decayA glimmer of thrill as you walk away.I fell for a man who is soulless and hollowLeaving me drowning in all of your sorrow.(Verse 2)You pull the right strings and you play with my mindA selfish, sweet coward, so perfectly kindUntil you get bored, and you turn on the screwThere is no empathy living in you.You don’t care who’s broken, you don’t care who bleedsAs long as you’re feeding your endless needs.(Chorus)You’re a monster wrapped up in a lover’s disguiseA beautiful trap built of selfish liesYou leave a wide path of destruction and painAnd you never apologize, you just look at the rainOh, you love the ruins, you love the decayA glimmer of thrill as you walk away.I fell for a man who is soulless and hollowLeaving me drowning in all of your sorrow.(Bridge)How did I miss the cracks in the paint?You played the savior, you played the saintNow I see clearly the monster insideNow there is nowhere for your truth to hideYou smile at the wreckage, you bask in the ashCounting the victims of your sudden crash.(Guitar/Instrumental Solo - Heavy and brooding)(Final Chorus)You’re a monster wrapped up in a lover’s disguiseA beautiful trap built of selfish liesYou leave a wide path of destruction and painAnd you never apologize, you just look at the rainOh, you love the ruins, you love the decayA glimmer of thrill as you walk away.I fell for a man who is soulless and hollowLeaving me drowning in all of your sorrow.(Outro)No, you’re never truly sorry.You smile at the destruction left in your wake.A man without a soul...Just a monster in disguise.And I finally see you.
