Why come closer to me? Haven't you listened to what I've told you? Don't you know I'm a monster? The world changed me too much. I was not who I was at the beginning of my story— Not even mine The story was never mine Who wrote me to be like that? Find the author of my life Stab a pen through her heart I am just a woeful character in your story Simply there to continue the plot A blot to be scrubbed from your white clothes I have been fighting for so long to stay in your story Till my hands and eyes were bleeding Oh, if only you knew what she put me through Would you still hold my hand? My mind is falling through the cracks I don't want to fight to be in your story anymore Oh, how ready I am to give up the story To give this burden into someone else To another character Another character to be erased just like me Oh how I want to surrender to that To the final lines of my story To allow this sick author continue with her story Maybe for a mere moment I could be someone to love Could I be enough? Under the touch of your fingertips? Why would you stay by my side; Even if you saw the monster that I am?

Monster in your story
Why come closer to me? Haven't you listened to what I've told you? Don't you know I'm a monster? The world changed me too much. I was not who I was at the beginning of my story— Not even mine The story was never mine Who wrote me to be like that? Find the author of my life Stab a pen through her heart I am just a woeful character in your story Simply there to continue the plot A blot to be scrubbed from your white clothes I have been fighting for so long to stay in your story Till my hands and eyes were bleeding Oh, if only you knew what she put me through Would you still hold my hand? My mind is falling through the cracks I don't want to fight to be in your story anymore Oh, how ready I am to give up the story To give this burden into someone else To another character Another character to be erased just like me Oh how I want to surrender to that To the final lines of my story To allow this sick author continue with her story Maybe for a mere moment I could be someone to love Could I be enough? Under the touch of your fingertips? Why would you stay by my side; Even if you saw the monster that I am?
