[Lily Allen - Monster lyrics]
He came to my bedroom about 2 am
He was screaming and shouting
Didn't want to be friends
He was looking for answers, he wanted his dad
I knew what he meant so, it was terribly sad
Did he come there to hurt me?
Was I meant to be scared?
I could tell he was angry
He was clearly distressed
Could it be a rejection?
Has the fear come to life?
Is it all in my mind?
He'd finally left me, then the next day
I noticed some items, had been taken away
2 weeks for nothing, I got home for one day
And he'd brought back my handbag
But he'd set it ablaze
He left my license, but he'd cut it in half
Me and my monster, we're not worlds apart
I could tell that he hates me
And I see that he's ashamed
Might feel the same way!
I made a Monster, a monster of me
I learned to lock my monster up
But, I couldn't throw away the key
I made a Monster, a monster of me
When I say I blame him (Instead I blame me)
(I blame me x3)
I pay myself for
I shape my way, my mortgages
My hair, my people services
That's how this is! I want to priviledge
Pay my way, privileged
And say how much I hate the system
"I'm a citizen!" "I'm a citizen!"
He was screaming and shouting
Didn't want to be friends
He was looking for answers, he wanted his dad
I knew what he meant so, it was terribly sad
Did he come there to hurt me?
Was I meant to be scared?
I could tell he was angry
He was clearly distressed
Could it be a rejection?
Has the fear come to life?
Is it all in my mind?
He'd finally left me, then the next day
I noticed some items, had been taken away
2 weeks for nothing, I got home for one day
And he'd brought back my handbag
But he'd set it ablaze
He left my license, but he'd cut it in half
Me and my monster, we're not worlds apart
I could tell that he hates me
And I see that he's ashamed
Might feel the same way!
I made a Monster, a monster of me
I learned to lock my monster up
But, I couldn't throw away the key
I made a Monster, a monster of me
When I say I blame him (Instead I blame me)
(I blame me x3)
I pay myself for
I shape my way, my mortgages
My hair, my people services
That's how this is! I want to priviledge
Pay my way, privileged
And say how much I hate the system
"I'm a citizen!" "I'm a citizen!"
