"Monster" lyrics

"Monster"

I wish you were the person
Your mother thinks you are
But I have witnessed every version
I know the depth of your dark

And you are not a monster
You don't hide beneath my bed
You are just a fragile man
And there's nothing scarier than that

I wish that I believed you
When you tell me that I'm safe
I don't know when it happened
But I became afraid

'Cause you are not a monster
Like the stories in my head
But you know how to ruin me
And that's what scares me to death

You're scaring me to death
You're scaring me

(You're scaring me)

And I wish you were the person
I told the world you are
But I have peered behind the curtain
I know the depth of your dark
