Monster

A Poem by Siennaskeleton
"

These song lyrics are about your monster. Everybody has one, no matter what it may be. It may be an addicion, disorder, or just simple guilt.

"

The monster's coming after you,

Your trying to run away,

Your scent, it drives it crazy,

The pungency of fresh prey.

 

Feeling hot breath on your back,

Neck hair erect from fear too,

It's grasp not just squeezing around,

But also right through

 

It lets out a low gutteral growl,

From a wide and tooth bearing grin,

A chill runs down your spine,

A shiver up your skin.

 

{Chorus}

Monster,

You got a monster

In form of deep dark codes

Monster

Everyone's got a monster

Severity in different modes

Monster

Can't escape the monster

Our lives it erodes

 

You run away, so far away,

Hope that the monster won't seek you out,

Praying that it won't sniff you out,

Pleading your scent to stop it's shout.

 

Your own eyes gleam back at you,

From the folds of the darkening night,

You hold your breath and wait,

Realize those are the eyes that give you fright,

 

Those eyes belong to the monster,

They stare back at you, deranged,

You're backed into a corner,

No breaking away, no change

 

{Chorus}

Monster

You got a monster

In form of deep dark codes

Monster

Everyone's got a monster

Severity in different modes

Monster

Can't escape the monster

Our lives it erodes.

 

Life was good before you met the monster,

Afterwards, life was great,

But soon the good times stopped and,

Now your stuck in front of hells gate

 

It holds you firmly by the collar,

Opens the gate and forces you inside,

How will you ever escape,

This rollar coaster ride?

 

A downward spiral with no definate ending,

An accident, a wreck, a crash,

The monster has it's grip on you,

Soon all you'll be is bones and ash

 

...Guitar Solo...

 

Weakness and pity muddle your mind,

Cravings cloud your vision

Your monster will consume you,

Wheather or not it's your desicion

 

Weakness and pity muddle your mind,

Cravings cloud your vision,

You monster will consume you

Wheather or not it's your desicion.

 

...Smaller continuation of previous guitar solo...

 

{Chorus}

Monster

We got a monster

In form of deep dark codes

Monster

Everyones got a monster

Severity in different modes

Monster

Can't escape the monster

Our lives it erodes

 

Monster

Everyones got a monster

Monster

Everyone's got a monster

Monster

Do you understand that the monster is you and your problem or do I need to make it more clear?

This is very powerful. I really enjoyed reading this. Our monsters are what drive us crazy. But I agree, they are our problems. Now just to figure out how to rid ourselves of these demons...

GREAT JOB!!!!!!
