I choke, and a sour taste escapes my mouth
I freeze when slowly all the lights fade out
I cry for help but words don't seem to carry through the gloom
I crawl into the corner of my mattressed room
I lose control
Something takes hold of me
(And I) fight (to break) free
(From the) grip (tightening) a(round) my soul
If I had known there was a monster deep inside of me
I would have known that I belong in isolation cells I wouldn't hesitate to end it all and set me free
A simple accident will mark the end of my distress
And all I hear are funeral bells as I am laid to rest
I hide from something lurking just outside my view
I try to block the visions out but they keep breaking through
I scream as shady figures slither down the matressed walls
I crouch and watch it all break as the monster calls
I close my eyes
Wait (to be) anesthetized
(Or) soon I will fall (and the)
Monster will rise
If I had known there was a monster deep inside of me
I would have known that I belong in isolation cells I wouldn't hesitate to end it all and set me free
A simple accident will mark the end of my distress
And all I hear are funeral bells as I am laid to rest
I lose control it's taking hold of me
If I had known there was a monster deep inside of me
I would have known that I belong in isolation cells I wouldn't hesitate to end it all and set me free
A simple accident will mark the end of my distress
And all I hear are funeral bells as I am laid to rest
