The Monster You Made Me

[Intro - soft piano, distant choir]

Ahh…
You woke me…

⸻

[Verse 1]

I felt the darkness call my name
Like a secret carved into my veins
You touched the parts I hid away
And something holy slipped to grey

You showed me shadows I could keep
A place where broken hearts can breathe
I stepped inside the flames you lit
And found a version strong enough to live

⸻

[Pre-Chorus - new, intimate]

You didn’t drag me to the edge
I stepped in closer, breathless, pledged
Say my name like it’s a sin
I was yours the moment I let you in

⸻

[Chorus - soaring, emotional]

I’m becoming the monster that you made me
But I’m not afraid
Let your darkness overtake me
Keep me sane

I can’t sleep without you next to me
I’m wide awake
I’ll shout it out loud —
I’m becoming the monster you made me


⸻

[Verse 2]

They call you wicked; I don’t care
I saw the truth you tried to spare
You held my shadows without fear
And suddenly the world was clear

Maybe I was meant for this
A love that tastes like venom’s kiss
A crown of ash upon my head
Feels more honest than the life I left

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]

You didn’t drag me to the edge
I stepped in closer, breathless, pledged
Say my name like it’s a sin
I was yours the moment I let you in

⸻

[Chorus - bigger, layered harmonies]

I’m becoming the monster that you made me
But I’m not afraid
Let your darkness overtake me
Keep me sane

I can’t sleep without you next to me
I’m wide awake
I’ll shout it out loud —
I’m becoming the monster you made me

⸻

[Bridge - quiet → rising, strings swell]

Take what’s left — I won’t pretend
I was never built for innocence
If loving you is how I fall
Then let the light forget my all

I crossed the line — I don’t repent
This shadowed heart is permanent
Your wickedness has set me free
Now the dark belongs to me

⸻

[Final Chorus - full choir, full strings, strongest belt]

I’m becoming the monster that you awakened
And I’m not afraid
Pull me under, let your shadows take me
I need your faith

I lie awake with your name in my chest
Lost in the ache
I’ll cry it out loud —
I’m becoming the monster you made me

⸻

[Outro - choir fades, piano only]

Ahh…
You woke me…
