Monster (Ode to Johnny)

What are you doing

Chasing the bottom of every bottle
Just to make life easy to swallow
Sometimes it hurts just to swallow
These pills make this head hollow

Quiet these voices that control me
So strong out, sad and lonely
Even with you right at my side
It's even darker with all these lights

Yeah, yeah

You say there's a monster inside
No time to play, run and hide
You failed, I'm no monster inside
Lies that you spread, so vile and snide
Destroyed this man on his pirate's ride

All this time he sat quiet
Waiting on his time, to start his riot
Lights begin to fade, life out of sight
Fighting for his life, pulling towards light

To get this off a dead man's chest
This dead man will tell his tale
Finding his words and one last breath
Proving your lies as Macbeth

Yeah, yeah

You say there's a monster inside
No time to play, run and hide
You failed, I'm no monster inside
Lies that you spread, so vile and snide

Destroyed this man on his pirate's ride

Hangin' on the edge and I'm waiting to be cleansed
There's no monster inside
Lies that you spread, so vile and snide

Cannot destroy this man on his pirate's ride
On his pirate's ride

You say there's a monster inside
No time to play, run and hide
You failed, I'm no monster inside
Lies that you spread, so vile and snide
You say there's a monster inside
No time to play, run and hide
You failed, I'm no monster inside
Lies that you spread, so vile and snide
Cannot destroy this man on his pirate's ride
Yeah mhm
