Intro: Dm  Bb  Am7  Dm 


Verse 1 
     Dm                          Bb 
It's finally come, come to knock down my door 
        Am7                   Dm 
I can't hide this time like I hid before 
    Dm                  Bb 
The storm is awake, the danger is real 
   Am7                       Dm 
My time's running out, don't feel, don't feel 


Pre-Chorus 1 
Bb                         F 
Fear will be our enemy and death its consequence 
C                                          Dm                     Am 
That's what they once said to me, and it's starting to make sense 
Bb                             F 
All this pain, all this fear began because of me 
Eb                         A 
Is the thing they see, the thing I have to be 


 
  D5                 F#m 
A monster, were they right? 
        Em                         Gm 
Has the dark in me finally come to light? 
       D5              F#m 
Am I a monster full of rage? 
           Em          Gm 
Nowhere to go but on a rampage? 
   Bb                       (Dm) 
Or am I just a monster in a cage? 



Post-Chorus 1 
Dm               F 
End this winter, bring back summer 
Gm                  Bb 
Keep your guard up (no harm comes to her) 
Dm               F 
End this winter, bring back summer 
Gm              Bb (mute) 
Keep your guard up 


Verse 2 
Dm                        Bb 
What do I do, no time for crying now 
     Am7                       Dm 
I've started this storm, gotta stop it somehow 


Pre-Chorus 2 
Bb                        F 
Do I keep on running, how far do I have to go? 
    Am7                               Dm                Am 
And will that take the storm away, or only make it grow 
    Bb                          F 
I'm making my world colder, how long can it survive? 
   Eb                    A 
Is everyone in danger as long as I'm alive? 



        Bm               F#m 
Was I a monster from the start? 
        Em                        Gm 
How did I end up with this frozen heart? 
         Bm                 F#m 
Bringing destruction to the stage 
            Em                        Gm 
Caught in a war that I never meant to wage 
Bb 
Do I kill the monster? 



Bridge 
Bm                      F#m 
Father, you know what's best for me 
Em                Gm 
   If I die, will they be free? 
Bm              F#m 
Mother, what if after I'm gone 
    Em                       Gm 
The cold gets colder and the storm rages on? 
   Bm                       F#m 
No, I have to stay alive to fix what I've done 
         Em                    G 
Save the world from myself and bring back the sun 


 
         Cm                Gm 
If I'm a monster then it's true 
             F5                           G5 G#5 
There's only one thing that's left for me to do 
      Cm          Gm 
But before I fade to white 
        F5                     G5     G#5 
I'll do all that I can to make things right

I cannot be a monster 
  G#5 
I will not be a monster 
      D#5         D#5/C#   D#5/C  D# 
Not tonight 
     (monster, monster, monster)
