[Intro]

Mercy, mercy

Chains all wrapped around me, around me

Try to break free from the darker part of me

Mercy, mercy, please

[Verse 1]

I forget myself and my good nature

When I let temptation

Get the better of me

Oh, mercy me

[Chorus]

All I see (Monster)

Is a monster in me (Monster)

All I see (Monster)

Is a monster in me (Monster)

[Verse 2]

She is made of skeletons

I tried to bury long ago

Her finger's always on the trigger

Oh, no, no, no

[Chorus]

All I see (Monster, monster)

Is a monster (Monster) in me

All I see (Monster, monster)

Is a monster (Monster) in me

[Post-Chorus]

Ooh (Monster), ooh (Monster)

Ooh (Monster), ooh, ooh

(The monster is me)

Ooh (Monster), ooh (Monster)

Ooh (Monster), ooh, ooh

[Bridge]

I want to be the hero you need

I wanna be brave, I wanna believe

Oh, but I'll take all the light and make it go black

Who could love somebody like that?

[Chorus]

All I see

Is a monster in me

All I see (Monster, monster)

Is a monster (Monster) in me (Monster)

[Post-Chorus]

Ooh (Monster)

Ooh (Monster)

The monster is me

[Outro]

All I see

Is a monster

The monster in me
