I'm a monster, the picture you paint of me
In your profit led view of reality
You tell them you're the only one they can trust
Sowing the seeds of fear & disgust
Fear leads to anger, & anger to hate
Hate leads to suffering & I'm your bait
You call me monster, you call me crazed
You call me evil, confused & dazed
What kind of monster am I that frightens you so?
What kind of monster am I?
I'm a monster, that's what you want from me
Someone for you to view as the enemy
You're twisting truth, & embellishing lies
All to keep the wool pulled over their eyes
You keep talking 'bout feelings & facts
Pulling the strings as your puppets attack
But when the truth starts to come into view
The only one crying over nothing is you
What kind of monster am I that frightens you so?
What kind of monster am I?
What kind of monster am I that frightens you so?
What kind of monster am I?
You're a monster, but you don't seem to be
Hidden behind your mask of propriety
Peel away at your layers of pride
& prejudice is what they hide
You'll change your view if you think it'll sell
The new thing to blame for the highway to hell
You know the truth, you can't let it get through
So tell me what kind of monster are you?
What kind of monster am I that frightens you so?
What kind of monster am I?
