Not Your Monster

Once we

We were the young and the tragic

Trying to make our magic in

This world of temporary things

We were

Searching for sweet perfection

Turning it to affliction while

Not knowing fact from fiction

I was thoughtless

Never that cold and heartless

It was a play reserved for you

When you wanted something new

No more

Call me when you are sober

You are too drunk to remember now

I did write you a love song

You got the words wrong

The pledge, the turn, the prestige

Are not worth anything

When we have to perform them

In front of a blind audience

We all have made our mistakes

Mistakes we've paid for

I'll always be a monster

But not your monster anymore

In the end we

Gave a birth to a hopeless dream

We had it all but prestige and

I have grown to hate our child

I learned

After we closed the curtain

And you had made me disappear

I was not the magician

But the assistant

The pledge, the turn, the prestige

Are not worth anything

When we have to perform them

In front of a blind audience

We all have made our mistakes

Mistakes we've paid for

I'll always be a monster

But not your monster anymore

I have no more cards up my sleeve

And you're no enchanter

I might have been playing the wolf

But you were the vampire

The pledge, the turn, the prestige

Are not worth anything

When we have to perform them

In front of a blind audience

We all have made our mistakes

Mistakes we've paid for

I'll always be a monster

But not your monster anymore

The pledge, the turn, the prestige

Are not worth anything

When we have to perform them

In front of a blind audience

We all have made our mistakes

Mistakes we've paid for

I'll always be a monster

But not your monster anymore
