Verse 1
The room is cold. The lights burn low. I feel the weight. I watch it grow. Beneath my skin, a heavy sound. It pulls me downInto the ground.
Chorus
Oh, the monster breathes. The monster wakes. With every step the quiet breaks. I lock the door, I hold the key, but it lives inside of me.
Verse 2
I hide the teeth. I hide the claws. I break the rules. I break the laws. It whispers low, It knows my name. It feeds on guilt. It feeds on shame.
Chorus
Oh, the monster breathes. The monster wakes. With every step the quiet breaks. I lock the door, I hold the key, but it lives inside of me.
Bridge
I tried to run. I tried to hide. The dark is here. It stays inside. No holy water, No sharp knife,It is the shadow of my life.
Outro
Just let it breathe. Just let it stay. The night is here. It won't go away.
