Monsters

Push further; Break the skin
Chew at the flesh; Wear it thin
(Are you satisfied?)
Pull harder; Rip out the bone
Grab at the blood; Crack stone
(Were you happy?)
Say it; Breathe it
Mean it; Break it
Anything you want; tear it down
End the scene; Make her drown
(Run away Run Away Run Away)
I've seen; I've watched
Brushed clean; Push further
Pull harder
Push farther
Let's resolve
Blur the lines; Convolve
(Run Away Run Away)
Make her breathe; Sing her song
Tell her she's right; She's wrong
(You belong; You belong)
It sees; It knows
Watch; It grows
They're never there; Break it
Prayer for the fair; Smother it
(Push further)
Break the skin; let it bleed
Riddled of sin; She has a need
(Liar Liar Liar Liar)
Eat it all; No peace
Choke on it; No release
She isn't there; you aren't real
Too much; It's not real
Chew it away; it will end
Someday
