Monster in This Song

I guess I really should have figured

That when you start off with secrets

The white lies implies

That things won’t go well

I guess I thought it didn’t matter

That acting off an impulse

As a depressed mess

It just might go bad

But I did it anyway

Loved you from that day

Never thought I’d stop

Now here’s the list drop

I kept you on the down low

And said you were my everything

You helped me find that happy song

And made my life a musical

I kept thinking we’re meant to be

Writing cheesy love songs

But I guess it wasn’t enough for me

When I lost that connectivity

I broke your heart, so I’ll play my part as

The monster in this song

I guess I’ll have to admit

That you never really accepted me

In your mind’s eye

I was a girl and not me

I guess I never noticed

All the red flags of compatibility

They built up shop

And I’m resentful

But I did it anyway

Loved you from that day

Never thought I’d stop

Now here’s the lists drop

I kept you on the down low

And said you were my everything

You helped me find that happy song

And made my life a musical

I kept thinking we’re meant to be

Writing cheesy love songs

But I guess it wasn’t enough for me

When I lost that connectivity

I broke your heart, so I’ll play my part as

The monster in this song

And it’s just so jarring

Like waking from a dream

Not your fault I was daring

But time to end the fairytale scene

And you have no fall back

I was in your entire plan

But I’ll get you back on a track

Before you can’t get on again

I kept you on the down low

And said you were my everything

You helped me find that happy song

And made my life a musical

I kept thinking we’re meant to be

Writing cheesy love songs

But I guess it wasn’t enough for me

When I lost that connectivity

I broke your heart, so I’ll play my part as

The monster in this song

You fed my heart, as I play my part as

The monster in this song
