My sickness feeds off your desires
Stuttered words that make no sense
And when it feels so right to come inside
Expressions betray the monster
That you've learned to hide so well

And when I wake up in the morning
I thank God I don't remember

I can see where this is taking me
A life of misery, full of lies and honestly
When I look into those eyes
Expressions betray the monster
That you've learned to hide so well

And when I wake up in the morning
I thank God I don't remember

Locked inside a place I've grown to hate
Disrespectful words that I don't deserve
And the things I've done to hurt you
Were never my intentions
But when I see the monster
That you've learned to hide so well

I thank God I don't remember

You could never heal this wound
Stop the bleeding, take the beating
You could never heal this wound
Or take the pain from me

And if I wake up in the morning
I pray to God I won't remember

This work lands a cruel heart strike Emily.

There's often a monster that only catch glimpses of, or pretend not to see.

Never sigh for a better world, it's already composed, played and told.
