His lips move but the monsters words of evil are heard His mouth shapes "I love you" but hatred is echoed He reaches for a hug but the beast lunges to attack There's a monster on his back He searches for the colors of day but is shut in a cave  He seeks for the limelight but is stuck in the shadows He forces a smile but the hurt is pulling a frown There's a monster that slipped inside He searches for knowledge but the monster hid the books He attempts navigation but the map is ripped to shreds  He wants to blossom but the beast chains him down There's a monster deep within He's found and yet he's lost His happiness is hidden He's full of life but wants it to end There's a monster who's made a home The monster has him on a leash  A never ending round of "simon says" He's a puppet with claws up his shirt A marionette with strings pulled tout  The monster disguises but unintentionally reveals  Brutality is uncovered but strength shines through Controversy is displayed but persistence can be found Anger takes over but intensity refuses to hide The monster is battled with bravery The monster is fought with passion The tables turn The untouchables are touched After years of war the monster does not budge He is frustrated and trapped but does not give up hope  He gathers an army to fight on and fight hard There's a very persistent monster The end can be touched it appears so near The dispute however does not come to a close The fight has no intention of ending The monster does not wish to leave The monster lives with an ignored eviction notice  The beast refuses to leave but agrees to downsize From giant to large to small to smaller The beast is tamed and not exiled His strings are extended but never cut His voice quiet but can be heard His hugs are gentle but welcomed and received He lives in peace as a landlord to a monster

His lips move but the monsters words of evil are heard His mouth shapes "I love you" but hatred is echoed He reaches for a hug but the beast lunges to attack There's a monster on his back He searches for the colors of day but is shut in a cave  He seeks for the limelight but is stuck in the shadows He forces a smile but the hurt is pulling a frown There's a monster that slipped inside He searches for knowledge but the monster hid the books He attempts navigation but the map is ripped to shreds  He wants to blossom but the beast chains him down There's a monster deep within He's found and yet he's lost His happiness is hidden He's full of life but wants it to end There's a monster who's made a home The monster has him on a leash  A never ending round of "simon says" He's a puppet with claws up his shirt A marionette with strings pulled tout  The monster disguises but unintentionally reveals  Brutality is uncovered but strength shines through Controversy is displayed but persistence can be found Anger takes over but intensity refuses to hide The monster is battled with bravery The monster is fought with passion The tables turn The untouchables are touched After years of war the monster does not budge He is frustrated and trapped but does not give up hope  He gathers an army to fight on and fight hard There's a very persistent monster The end can be touched it appears so near The dispute however does not come to a close The fight has no intention of ending The monster does not wish to leave The monster lives with an ignored eviction notice  The beast refuses to leave but agrees to downsize From giant to large to small to smaller The beast is tamed and not exiled His strings are extended but never cut His voice quiet but can be heard His hugs are gentle but welcomed and received He lives in peace as a landlord to a monster
