Under the knife I surrendered
The innocence’s yours to consume
You cut it away
And you filled me up with hate
Into the silence you sent me
Into the fire consumed
You thought I’d forget
But it’s always in my head
You’re the pulse in my veins
You’re the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
You’re the love that they hate
You’re the drug that I take
Will you cage me?
Will you cage me?
You’re the pulse in my veins
You’re the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
From the monster you made me
From the monster you made me
This is the world you’ve created
The product of what I’ve become
My soul and my youth
Since it’s all for you to use
If I could take back the moment
I let you get under my skin
Relent or resist?
Seems the monster always wins
You’re the pulse in my veins
You’re the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
You’re the love that they hate
You’re the drug that I take
Will you cage me?
Will you cage me?
You’re the pulse in my veins
You’re the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
From the monster you made me
From the monster you made me
My heart’s an artifice, a decoy soul
I’ll lift you up and then I’ll let you go
I’ve made an art of digging shallow holes
I drop the darkness in and watch it grow
My heart’s an artifice, a decoy soul
Who knew the emptiness could be so cold
I’ve lost the pieces that could make me whole
I am the darkness
I’m the monster
You’re the pulse in my veins
You’re the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
You’re the love that I hate
You’re the drug that I take
Will you cage me?
Will you cage me?
You’re the pulse in my veins
You’re the war that I wage
Can you change me?
Can you change me?
From the monster you made me?
The monster you made me?
The monster you made me?
The monster you made me?
