I'm A Monster
Of Mice And Men · The Flood [2011]
How much this song is only about you
You'd like that now won't you,
So I'll keep it short.
For every backstabbing lie and the whispers,
I'll shove this down your throat
You know there's no where to hide,
No way out alive,
I'll eat your heart,
I'm a monster.
No where to hide,
No way out alive,
I'll eat your heart,
I'm a monster.
I'm so sick of your kind,
Get the fuck out of my life
I'm so sick of your kind,
I'm a, I'm a fucking monster!
Monster! I'm a monster!
I swear, there's no where to hide
I swear, I'll eat you alive
I'm sick, so sick of your kind,
Get out, get out of my life!
For every backstabbing lie and the whispers,
I'll shove this down your. . .
