Story Behind The Song
As a child I used to love watching Werewolf movies such as An American Werewolf in London and the Howling. I was too young and I developed a fear of them. When youre a child and you believe in your heart and mind that there is a monster in the dark and your parent dont believe you it does nothing to break the fear.
Eventually I became the monster, people fear me. I am what my parents created and they hate me for it.
Probably.

Lyrics
My patients as it fades
its been draining for days
I think Im not afraid
but its only a game
number one my issue
my obsession for you
Im a child yeah its true
heres what Im gonna do
Creeping down in my heart
As Im lost in the dark
I hear you no one can
they do not understand
I hear steps, I feel sick
as my eyes start to twitch
Nothin more, always been
its time to just give in
---
the monster's laughing at me
it kicked a hole in my dream
comes seeping through and
and now it feeds off my screams
I hear it treading the floor
Im scared to open the door
Im trapped inside
My backs pressed up on the wall
I am what Ive become
I will not run
Am I the only one
Time to see what it takes
Time to face my mistakes
it comes now
but its all just a kick in the face
------
In my head its ok
when the monster does stray
thats not me so I say
and look the other way
Well I guess this is it
watch my world turn to shit
as it bends so it breaks
but that is what it takes
on my skin it does crawl
break my bones, crush them all
stretch my neck, tear my chest
this is the best one yet
all my life I was scared
it was not in my head
it was real, you were fake
look what the monster made
----
