Imagine Dragons — Monster

[Verse 1] Ever since I could remember Everything inside of me Just wanted to fit in (Oh, oh, oh) I was never one for pretenders Everything I tried to be Just wouldn't settle in (Oh, oh, oh) [Pre-Chorus] If I told you what I was Would you turn your back on me? And if I seemed dangerous Would you be scared? I get the feeling just because Everything I touch isn't dark enough That this problem lies in me [Chorus] I'm only a man with a candle to guide me I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me A monster, a monster I've turned into a monster A monster, a monster And it keeps getting stronger [Verse 2] Can I clear my conscience If I'm different from the rest? Do I have to run and hide? (Oh, oh, oh) I never said that I want this This burden came to me And it's made its home inside (Oh, oh, oh) [Pre-Chorus] If I told you what I was Would you turn your back on me? And if I seemed dangerous Would you be scared? I get the feeling just because Everything I touch isn't dark enough That this problem lies in me [Chorus] I'm only a man with a candle to guide me I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me A monster, a monster I've turned into a monster A monster, a monster And it keeps getting stronger [Instrumental Interlude] [Chorus] I'm only a man with a candle to guide me I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me A monster, a monster I've turned into a monster A monster, a monster And it keeps getting stronger
