[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…
