There is a monster inside of me...
And obviously
It wants nothing more than to be
Set free...
And he unlike me
Is cold and calculating.
He unlike me
Is irrational and always planning.
He unlike me
Just wants to be left alone
He wants to cut off everything
He wants to make my mind his home...
And I can tell myself to let him be
To push him down
To try and see.
That he and I can never be
I'll never be the tyrannical he...
But he will always live in me.
But he
 will always
 live
 in
 me...
My eyes are his.
My ears his too.
My heart is draped in darkened hues...
My mind is twisting
 it is at war
This shell is what we are fighting for.
He wants the dark
I want the sun
He wants to fight
 I want to run.
He thinks that burning things is fun
I'd rather see it over...
 done.
He longs for battle
 chaos too.
I want him dead.
He wants death too....
In hating him I hate myself.
I will
Until there's nothing left...
There is a monster inside of me.
I can do naught but let him be...
There is no separating he and I
Without my monster
 I would die...
So forever we will ever be
The light and dark
The him
 and me...
