Nathan Applegate - MONSTER Lyrics

Guess I did too much for you like someone drunk in love
Now I'm scared to sleep at night for things that I dream of
Carry me away again back to that dreadful day
I became a monster and my friends all went away
They all turned their backs on me, they burned me at the stake
Rumors flew and lies were spread by some redheaded snake
I deserved much better, that's what you said to me
Then you played me like a fiddle, left me hanging in a tree
So, check under your beds at night and close your closet doors
I'm lurking in the shadows of your minds forever more
I'll see you in your mem'ries, in your dreams and nightmares too
This monster who you think I am, always haunting you
I hope you all can sleep at night feeling justified
Romanticizing murder of the spirit, glorified
This monster you created will stand the test of time
You'll sing this to your grandchildren as a nursery rhyme
Make sure all your doors are locked and don't look in the mirror
He might jump out and scare you half to death, bring you to tears
You'll see him in your mem'ries, in your dreams and nightmares too
This monster we made him to be, always haunting you
History will show you that mistakes are often made
Good people far and wide are sadly so betrayed
Angels fall from glory to no fault of their own
And that is why their heart suddenly turns into stone
So, hide under your blankets keep your flashlight by your bed
A soul misunderstood now I'm seeking my revenge
I'll haunt you in your mem'ries, in your dreams and nightmares too
This monster you want me to be, always haunting you
I didn't wanna be like this but now all thanks to you
I am just a monster, and I'll be haunting you
