Monster Of Your Nightmares

(Yeah)

You hear that?

That's your doubt

Running

Clock hits fear and I swing first

Teeth in the dirt, taste your old hurt

Every scar on your back, that's armor

Every failure you dragged made you harder (hey!)

They said "quit" and you bit down

Turned every breakdown to a battleground

Got a war in your chest, let it roar now

If you're scared of the dark, be the storm now

I'm the monster of your nightmares

Built from every time you cried

All the times you said "I can't"

Now I wear them on my spine

I'm the monster of your nightmares

I'm the fear that switched sides

All the shadows in your head

Now they're standing by my side (by my side)

Look at you

Still breathing, still here

You walked through hell

Came out with no fear

Every "never" that they fed you, you burned that

Every limit that they drew, yeah you turned that

To a line that you cross when the pain hits

Now your name on the wall where the flame is (yeah)

I'm the monster of your nightmares

Built from every time you cried

All the times you said "I can't"

Now I wear them on my spine

I'm the monster of your nightmares

I'm the fear that switched sides

All the shadows in your head

Now they're standing by my side

[Beat drops to halftime, guitars chugging]

You are not weak, you're wounded

Still moving, still ruthless

Every doubt, execution

Every "no" is fuel, use it (use it!)

I'm the monster of your nightmares

Built from every time you cried

All the times you said "I can't"

Now I wear them on my spine

I'm the monster of your nightmares

I'm the fear that switched sides

All the shadows in your head

Now they're marching at your side (at your side)
