Monster Monster

The Almost Monster Monster Lyrics
1.Monster Monster

Sick of drinking poison
Sick of worrying
Sick of telling lies
You're just sick of listening
What a bastard child
I have made myself
What a stab
What a missing truth
I hope I can get home to you
What's the use in going it alone?
What's the use in going this alone?
It's you and me
Let's get out of this place
It's you and me
Let's get out of this place

I'm sick of this monster monster
You've gotta get here
You've gotta get here
I'm sick of this monster monster
You've gotta get here
You've gotta get here
We've go to get out, get out
Before things get weird
Before it gets weird
We've got to get out, get out
Before it gets weirder

I have made an exit
I have made a home
Among the throne
And I have given in
I have given in
I have lost respect for me
Can this get any worse?
Can this get any worse?

I'm sick of this monster monster
You've gotta get here
You've gotta get here
I'm sick of this monster monster
You've gotta get here
You've gotta get here
We've go to get out, get out
Before things get weird
Before it gets weird
We've got to get out, get out
Before it gets weirder

I'm sick of this monster monster
You've gotta get here
You've gotta get here
I'm sick of this monster monster
You've gotta get here
I'm sick of this monster monster
You've gotta get here
You've gotta get here
I'm sick of this monster monster
You've gotta get here
You've gotta get here
We've go to get out, get out
Before things get weird
Before it gets weird
We've got to get out, get out
Before it gets weirder


2.Lonely Wheel

In that room where you sit
Where you live
I know it's good to you
God, I know it's good to you
In your fear where you lay
Where you think
It eases all the pain
All the pain of what you made

One last night at the lonely wheel
One last taste of the sin we feel
One hope in the fear
That drives us on
One last drink just to kill the pain
One last breath
Before I say your name
I'm giving into you

If you could see in me
There is all you want
There is all you want
If you would just give in
It will get easier, it will get easier
(If you just give in it would...)

One last night at the lonely wheel
One last taste of the sin we feel
One hope in the fear
That drives us on
One last drink just to kill the pain
One last breath
Before I say your name
I'm giving into you

I get it, I need to fall
I get it, I need to call
Me and who I are so in the way
Me and who I am,
We are so in the way

One last night at the lonely wheel
One last taste of the sin we feel
One hope in the fear
That drives us on
One last drink just to kill the pain
One last breath
Before I say your name
I'm giving into you


3.No I Don't

I'm looking for some stable ground
Some kinda place to lay it down
And settle for a while
I'm sick of looking for a star
I won't show anyone my scars
Can you help me out?
I wanna see a change in me

When it's time for another round
I get in then I bow out
I'm kinda freaky that way
I used to stand as tall as I could
I used to be better than good
I guess I've made my bed
I wanna see a change in me

No, I don't listen when they tell me
They think I won't
Come back around
Find my way out
It's none of their business
It's none of their business

I've got another song in me
Because of you, I'm changing
I'm learning how to wait
Ugly as I could've been
Down and out and all broken
You never made me wait
You saw me
You didn't see my shame

No, I don't listen when they tell me
They think I won't
Come back around
Find my way out
It's none of their business

I'm free because you said so
And I'm learning to grow
Because you held my hand
I'm free because you said
Go, keep walking

No, I don't listen when they tell me
They think I won't
Come back around
Find my way out
It's none of their business
It's none of their business


4.Hands

I'm not afraid
To make big mistakes
I'm not afraid
To fall flat on my face
I need to get this looked at
Need to get this looked at
I need some time to think
About what I've done
Oh, one last thing before I go

With our hands up high
We're singing
Whoa whoa oh
Whoa whoa oh
And with our feet
We stomp a cadence for you

With our hands up high
We're singing
Whoa whoa oh
Whoa whoa oh
And with our feet
We stomp a cadence for you

It's all free and that's real
It's all free, you said I need
To accept, I need forget I guess
I'm glad I got this looked at
Finally got this looked at
I'm so glad you came for me
Get this, get this right
Before we go

With our hands up high
We're singing
Whoa whoa oh
Whoa whoa oh
And with our feet
We stomp a cadence for you

With our hands up high
We're singing
Whoa whoa oh
Whoa whoa oh
And with our feet
We stomp a cadence for you

I am the one who needs you
I am the one who needs you
I am the one who needs you

With our hands up high
We're singing
Whoa whoa oh
Whoa whoa oh
And with our feet
We stomp a cadence for you

With our hands up high
We're singing
Whoa whoa oh
Whoa whoa oh
And with our feet
We stomp a cadence for you


5.Young Again

I'm on a mission
That I think I can't handle
It's hard to tough it out
I need someone
To get me through this
Someone to pull me out
There you stand
There you stand
Your heart in your hand
Your heart in your hands
There you are, there you are
Waiting on me, there you are
Waiting on me

My God, my God
I'll change my tune
If you'll stay all night
Come on, come on
Let's comb the room
We're looking for this
To come around
And make us young again

It's good you're here
Cause I've been better
Yeah that's great
Your news can wait
So there you stand
There you stand
You've got your heart
Your heart in your hands
There you are, there you are
Waiting on me
Comb the room, comb the room

My God, my God
I'll change my tune
If you'll stay all night
Come on, come on
Let's comb the room
We're looking for this
To come around
And make us young again

I'm looking for this to end
I'm looking for this to end

My God, my God
I'll change my tune
If you'll stay all night
Come on, come on
Let's comb the room
We're looking for this
To come around
And make us young again


6.Summer Summer

Walking around, looking down
For something better
There's nothing better
Some old weird and familiar sound
It's just you leaving town, my God
August came around

Summer comes and leaves you with a fever
That you caught
When you were young
Summer goes, makes you feel like life is real
And hanging on for more

Empty streets, empty me
Just call me vagabond
Wondering in the sun
This is getting sort of old
Wandering aimlessly
Is it empty streets or empty me?

Summer comes and leaves you with a fever
That you caught
When you were young
Summer goes, makes you feel like life is real
And hanging on for more

Hanging, hanging
Holding on for me, hoping, praying
This will all start over
Come back for me
We will walk the streets
Of this old town
Make me a promise
This will all come back around

Summer comes and leaves you with a fever
That you caught
When you were young
Summer goes, makes you feel like life is real
And hanging on for more


7.Hand Grenade

Oh, to be young
It sounds like so much fun
Oh, the long wait
For things to happen, expectancy
And you, just waiting on me
I wanna know what's in your plans

If you're an ocean
Then I wanna jump right in
If you're a hand grenade
Then I'll pull the pin
I'll wait right here, all night for you
To let me in and I'll run run run run
Run right back to you, I'll run

Life's moving faster now
I'm older here
But younger somehow
Head full of fear
And it makes me break
Please let me find you
Please let me know
Just what you want
Please let me see
What you need me to be

If you're an ocean
Then I wanna jump right in
If you're a hand grenade
Then I'll pull the pin
I'll wait right here, all night for you
To let me in and I'll run run run run
Run right back to you, I'll run

Oh, if you could see in me
You might be kinda scared
Oh, if I could just believe
You'll take me anywhere

If you're an ocean
Then I wanna jump right in
If you're a hand grenade
Then I'll pull the pin
I'll wait right here, all night for you
To let me in and I'll run run run run
Run right back to you, I'll run
Run right back to you, I'll run
Run right back to you, I'll run


8.Books & Books

It's in my face
How much I've changed
The colors clash
Of who I used to be
Things are getting weird
My thoughts are changing
So get me out of this place
Get me out of this place

Go ahead and write this down
So you'll remember now
So you'll remember now
Go ahead and scream it out
So you'll remember now
Everything you said

It's obvious that I've become
Everything that you don't want me to be
I need to change, rearrange
Start walking your way
Start walking your way

Go ahead and write this down
So you'll remember now
So you'll remember now
Go ahead and scream it out
So you'll remember now
Everything you said

Maybe love pokes through
When we're at our worst
Maybe love comes through
When we're broken at the end

Go ahead and write this down
So you'll remember now
So you'll remember now
Go ahead and write this down
So you'll remember now
So you'll remember now
Go ahead and scream it out
So you'll remember now
Everything you said


9.Souls On Ten

Windows down, our moods on ten
We're here with our wondering
Is this all perfect for real?
Is perfection the way that we feel?
Postcards from the dollar bin
We're waiting for our luck to spin
I will change my mind
I won't let us lose

You and me
With the windows down
You and me out
And killing this town
You and me
With our souls on ten
It's just you and me again
Our luck is the way we feel
Our time is moving backward
Still you and me
With our souls on high
It's just you and me tonight

You've changed my mind
About who I've been
You've kept this heart
From wondering am I alive or dead?
Am I alive or dead?
My brain is moving differently
My young soul has figured out
Just what life needs to be
Just what life needs to be

You and me
With the windows down
You and me out
And killing this town
You and me
With our souls on ten
It's just you and me again
Our luck is the way we feel
Our time is moving backward
Still you and me
With our souls on high
It's just you and me tonight

There's no use in changing
For myself, I don't know why
But it took you, it took you
Now I know what this is all about
Now I know what this is all about
Now I know what this is all about

You and me
With the windows down
You and me out
And killing this town
You and me
With our souls on ten
It's just you and me again
Our luck is the way we feel
Our time is moving backward
Still you and me
With our souls on high
It's just you and me tonight


10.Want To

Truth works just like it needs to
Sharp, an ugly riding off the lips
Of someone strange
Oh, how weird it can be
Looking at you, looking at me
I know just what you think
Yeah, I know just what you think

I can't take this down
I don't need it
No, I don't want it
God, I don't want it
I want to feel proud
I won't let them see
Won't let them see me
Won't let t hem see me now
It should be easier

The back of my throat is so dry
The sick in my chest won't subside
The ugly that is now is real
The helplessness of my pain
Me knowing the weight of my shame
Can you get me out?
Yeah come on, get me out

I can't take this down
I don't need it
No, I don't want it
God, I don't want it
I want to feel proud
I won't let them see
Won't let them see me
Won't let t hem see me now

I can't tell how I lie, I can't tell why
I'm not gonna make it
Out real clean
I can't tell when it's real
I can't tell what I feel
Maybe this is numb?
Maybe this is me?

If this is really me, God help me
To separate fact from fiction
Separate fact from fiction
If I am really free, help me

I can't take this down
I don't need it
No, I don't want it
God, I don't want it
I want to feel proud
I won't let them see
Won't let them see me
Won't let t hem see me now
It should be easier


11.Get Through

With a stutter, I'll be talking
No with my sickness
I'll get through somehow
You won't, no you won't, hey
With a fever, I'll put up a fight
With my temper
Can't get through tonight
And you won't, no you won't
I am sick of me and all my...

If I had you, where would I be?
If I was real, could I be free?
If I was real, could I be free?
If I had you, where would I be?

This situation, grown a little now
I'm pushing forward
With a stupid scowl
And you won't, no you won't
I've grown my hair a little longer
Now I've made
A fool out of myself somehow
And you won't, no you won't
I am over this, I am over

If I had you, where would I be?
If I was real, could I be free?
If I was real, could I be free?
If I had you, where would I be?

Down on me, down on me
You won't look down on me
Down on me, down on me
You won't look down on me
Go ahead and let me be me
Change this head
And watch me, watch me

If I had you, where would I be?
If I was real, could I be free?
If I was real, could I be free?
If I had you, where would I be?


12.Monster

In this strange tangle of love
I'm learning now to see
In this weird change of space
I'm learning to believe in this life
I'm living, I feel you helping me

If I were a monster
Would you wince
When you looked at me?
If I were a freak would you stare?
If I were a leper
Would you say unclean?
If I was lost,
Would you help me get free?

Time and space are closing in
And their turning me weak
You and me are making friends
Just learning howt o be
I learn from you and
You're watching me
This is the way to be

If I were a monster
Would you wince
When you looked at me?
If I were a freak would you stare?
If I were a leper
Would you say unclean?
If I was lost,

This is real, this is now
I don't wanna go, I hold on
You let go, will I ever know?

If I were a monster
Would you wince
When you looked at me?
If I were a freak would you stare?
When I am a monster
You never wince
When you look at me
When I am a freak, you never stare
When I am a leper
You never say unclean
And when I am lost
You come and get me free

Are you read to live your life?
Are you healed enough?
Can you stop?
Can you stop and enjoy the ride?
