I swear I’m still human
Please ignore my claws
I swear I’m still human
Can’t you see my flaws?

I’m still not the same
Since I got caught in the rain
Now there’s the Thing that’s riding on my back
Watching to repeat all the ways that humans act

I swear I’m no monster
I live like people do
I swear I’m no monster
They don’t live passed twenty-two

I’m the old me you know
Just a little meaner now though
Now I don’t eat anymore when I’m hungry
The Thing on my back thinks food looks ugly

I’m not a monster
Overlook the rotten teeth
I’m not a monster
I smiled just last week

I’ll never be the same
Since I was blinded in the rain
I don’t know how but now the Thing is my master
It rides on my back and kicks me yelling, “faster!”

I might be a monster
But who can ever tell?
I might be a monster
Now I’m going to hell
