C
The secret side of meG
I never let you seeAm
I keep it cagedF
But I can't control itC
So stay away from meG
The beast is uglyAm
I feel the rageF
And I just can't hold itC
G
It's scratching on the wallsAm
In the closet, in the hallsF
It comes awakeC
And I can't control itG
Hiding under the bedAm
In my body, in my headF
Why won't somebody come and save me from this?C
Make it end!G
Am
I feel it deep within,F
It's just beneath the skinC
I must confess that I feel like a monsterG
I hate what I've becomeAm
The nightmare's just begunF
I must confess that I feel like a monsterC
I, I feel like a monsterG
I, I feel like a monsterAm
F
My secret side I keepC
Hid under lock and keyG
I keep it cagedAm
But I can't control itF
Cause if I let him outC
G
He'll tear me upAm
And break me downF
Why won't somebody come and save me from this?C
Make it end!G
I feel it deep within,Am
It's just beneath the skinF
I must confess that I feel like a monsterC
I hate what I've becomeG
The nightmare's just begunAm
I must confess that I feel like a monsterF
C
I feel it deep within,G
It's just beneath the skinAm
I must confess that I feel like a monsterF
I, I feel like a monsterC
I, I feel like a monsterG
Am
It's hiding in the darkF
It's teeth are razor sharpC
There's no escape for meG
It wants my soul,Am
It wants my heartF
C
No one can hear me screamG
Maybe it's just a dreamAm
Or maybe it's inside of meF
Stop this monster!C
I feel it deep within,G
It's just beneath the skinAm
I must confess that I feel like a monsterF
I hate what I've becomeC
The nightmare's just begunG
I must confess that I feel like a monsterAm
F
I feel it deep within,C
It's just beneath the skinG
I must confess that I feel like a monsterAm
I'm gonna lose controlF
Here's something radicalC
I must confess that I feel like a monsterG
Am
I, I feel like a monsterF
I, I feel like a monsterC
I, I feel like a monsterG
I, I feel like a monsterC

About this song: Monster
"It’s a song about being fake and putting on a face for people that’s not the real you. But it’s basically about the nature of sin and the nature of the divine, which is the duel nature we have as Christians. Everyday we have to strive to throw away the old and be that new person in Christ." - John Cooper (Skillet) Cooper expanded on the song to Christianity Today magazine: "In a theological sense, the song is about original sin. You are born into the human race, you're guilty or sinful, no matter what you hope to be. Read more on Last.fm.
