About Monster

"It’s a song about being fake and putting on a face for people that’s not the real you. But it’s basically about the nature of sin and the nature of the divine, which is the duel nature we have as Christians. Everyday we have to strive to throw away the old and be that new person in Christ." - John Cooper (Skillet) Cooper expanded on the song to Christianity Today magazine: "In a theological sense, the song is about original sin. You are born into the human race, you're guilty or sinful, no matter what you hope to be. .

Monster Lyrics

[00:14.37] The secret side of me, I never let you see
[00:17.99] I keep it caged, but I can't control it
[00:21.30] So stay away from me, the beast is ugly
[00:25.11] I feel the rage and I just can't hold it
[00:28.72] It's scratching on the walls, in the closet, in the halls
[00:32.32] It comes awake, and I can't control it
[00:35.60] Hiding under the bed, in my body, in my head
[00:39.50] Why won't somebody come and save me from this, make it end?
[00:44.56] I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
[00:48.16] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[00:51.74] I hate what I've become
[00:53.41] The nightmare's just begun
[00:55.37] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[00:58.91] I, I feel like a monster
[01:02.32] I, I feel like a monster
[01:07.24]
[01:13.04] My secret side I keep, hid under lock and key
[01:16.64] I keep it caged, but I can't control it
[01:20.01] 'Cause if I let him out he'll tear me up, break me down
[01:23.65] Why won't somebody come and save me from this, make it end?
[01:28.88] I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
[01:32.53] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[01:36.06] I hate what I've become
[01:37.95] The nightmare's just begun
[01:39.79] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[01:43.32] I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
[01:46.76] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[01:50.47] I, I feel like a monster
[01:53.95] I, I feel like a monster
[01:57.56] It's hiding in the dark
[01:59.20] It's teeth are razor sharp
[02:00.97] There's no escape for me, it wants my soul, it wants my heart
[02:04.43] No one can hear me scream
[02:06.30] Maybe it's just a dream
[02:08.07] Maybe it's inside of me, stop this monster
[02:11.65] I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
[02:15.22] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[02:18.81] I hate what I've become
[02:20.55] The nightmare's just begun
[02:22.31] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[02:25.97] I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
[02:29.42] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[02:33.16] I've gotta lose control, it's something radical
[02:36.48] I must confess that I feel like a monster
[02:40.29] I, I feel like a monster
[02:43.68] I, I feel like a monster
[02:47.30] I, I feel like a monster
[02:50.83] I, I feel like a monster!
[02:53.63]
