Inner Monster

Silence Just the sound of my heartbeat Can you feel it? Something’s coming I’m a whisper in the wind, a shadow in the night You don’t see the storm, you don’t know my name I could save the world, or I could bring the pain But I’m holding my breath, just playing the game Monster inside, it’s whispering low One more step and I’m gone like a shadow You don’t know the weight, you don’t know the strain But I’m counting the days, I’m counting the rain I’m the calm before the thunder, the silence before the beat I’m the crack in the wall, the scream in the street Inner Monster, tearing at my skin Inner Monster, let the chaos begin Inner Monster, screaming in my head Inner Monster, I’m about to explode instead I’ve been quiet, but I’m screaming inside Every word that I say, I’m barely alive They don’t know the power, they don’t know the might But I’m holding the pieces, I’m holding it tight I could be a hero, I could be the end But the monster inside is my only friend One more push and I’m ready to fall But I’m still the calm before the quake I’m a storm in the silence, a crack in the wall You don’t see the fury, you don’t feel the call Inner Monster, tearing at my skin Inner Monster, let the chaos begin Inner Monster, screaming in my head Inner Monster, I’m about to explode instead Now I’m snapping, no more games to play I’m a beast in the cage, I’m breaking away You don’t know the fire, you don’t feel the heat I’m the storm in the silence, I’m the beat beneath the beat I’m the crack in the wall, I’m the scream in the night I’m the shadow that’s rising, I’m the fight You don’t know the pain, you don’t know the cost But I’m burning the bridges, I’m crossing the line, I’m lost Inner Monster, tearing at my skin Inner Monster, let the chaos begin Inner Monster, screaming in my head Inner Monster, I’m about to explode instead You don’t see the storm, you don’t feel the heat I’m the calm before the thunder, the silence before the beat I’m on the edge, I’m ready to break But I’m still the calm before the quake Inner Monster, tearing at my skin Inner Monster, let the chaos begin Inner Monster, screaming in my head Inner Monster, I’m about to explode instead Silence Just the echo of my heartbeat Can you feel it? It’s over
