Monster

How long
Can the lie
Live within your aching soul?
How long
Will you try
To suffocate the breath that frees your mind
When will the crashing weight
Crash upon your plans of escape?

How strong
Is the line
That you tethered to your heart
Or did you leave your heart behind?

It's easy for a while
To keep your demon fed
To scratch your prison walls and take your medicine
But the burden that you bare
Will eat you from inside
Eventually the monster must die
Eventually the monster must die

How quiet
Will you be
When you arrive tomorrow morning?
How deep
Is the bed?
Will it hide you from the world?
Or amplify the noise?

It's easy for a while
To keep your demon fed
To scratch your prison walls and take your medicine
But the burden that you bare
Will eat you from inside
Eventually the monster must die
Eventually the monster must die

How long
Can the lie
Live within your aching soul?
How long
Will you try
To suffocate the breath that frees your mind

It's easy for a while
To keep your demon fed
To scratch your prison walls and take your medicine
But the burden that you bare
Will eat you from inside
Eventually the monster must die
Eventually the monster must die
