They Call Me The Monster Lyrics

I was born in the shadows where the light refused to go

A cold and lonely place where love could never ever grow

They feared me they scorned me a child left to the night

But I found my power deep within a dark and deadly might

They call me the monster the one who should be feared

But they don't see the pain behind the mask I always wear

I sought out the magic the secrets of the soul

Not for the sake of evil but to finally feel whole

In every whispered word I found a piece of me

A promise of a future where I'd finally be free

I reached for what they hid the truths they would deny

For I was never meant to fade to wither or to die

They call me the monster the one who should be feared

But they don't see the pain behind the mask I always wear

I sought out the magic the secrets of the soul

Not for the sake of evil but to finally feel whole

I offered them my vision a world without their chains

But they clung to their illusions their loss would be my gain

So I became the legend the darkness in their tales

But deep inside this heart a lonely boy still wails

They call me the monster the one who should be feared

But they don't see the pain behind the mask I always wear

I sought out the magic the secrets of the soul

Not for the sake of evil but to finally feel whole

I am the power the one who broke their mold

Yet still I wander searching for the love they sold

For in my darkest hour when all is said and done

I wonder if I'll ever be the one who's truly won
