Beautiful Monster

I hurt you so bad
I said goodbye
I looked away
As you cried

I shed my skin
Spoke Faires Lies
Cut you twice
Like I had no heart inside 

How can you forgive me
After I threw your love away
How can you look at me 
And tell me its okay
I am a beautiful monster
Lock me up in chains
I am a beautiful monster
Push me away

I shut you out
and I told them lies
But you were there
Inside my mind
I recalled our talks 
At four a.m

Cried when no one was listening
I met his fists with burning pride
Stood strong when I thought Id die

How can you forgive me
After I threw your love away
How can you look at me
It will never be the same
I am a beautiful monster
Dont push me away

How can you forgive me
After I threw your love 
How can you look at me
And tell me its okay 
I am a beautiful monster 
Lock me up in chains
I am a beautiful monster
Push me away

How can you forgive me 
How can you look at me
After I threw your love away
It will never be the same
Tell me its okay 
Hold me close 
Lock me up in chains
Beautiful monster
Beautiful
Beautiful monster
