Monster Within

I have a monster within, can't you tell? I feel this rage and my sanity fell. How can you love me, you've seen it before? But you always stay close, my heart it torn. It's like I feel this blood lust urge. All around me it begins to surge. It takes me over, over quick. And when I wake I feel sick. All this red inside me becomes reallity. As all these bodies lay around me. I don't understand you, not at all. I fear your blood too, will fall. This monster within takes me over like a puppet. It's like I'm on strings and I'm helpless to stop it. My biggest fear happened because you wouldn't listen. We had a big fight and my sanity went missin. My tears mix with the blood on my face. The blood on my lip leaves a metallic taste. I'm sorry I failed you by committing this sin. So I give myself up to the monster, the monster within.
