Monster

Howl at the precious Moon Drink til you make her swoon That does not matter tonight if you're willing to put up the fight. Brace yourself, Stay in perfect health, So afterwards you can embrace yourself. Never fall backwards, Learn how to land, Always have a chance to go where no one dares be the only one whose not scared, be the only one who stands. Stand and face the hunter Who cowardly faces hunger When he stares at you Cause you're the monster. ROAR! Be the monster, set it free, Be yourself, be unique. Stand up and rise above Anyone who disowns your love, Anyone against you, Who dares to hide from you Cause you are only being you. If she's the monster, the boys will hate her Never mind rescuing her to fight to date her. But it's the monster that needs saving Safe from those who hunt, Safe from those who don't Listen. Watching in the night, we glisten. Watching our backs for hunters Keeping our family safe from hunger Cause that's what you do when you're a monster.
