Lyrics
[Slow, Haunting Midwest Emo, Post-Hardcore]
[Intro]
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 1]
At first, I would make music for myself,
Write some lyrics, find something that I liked,
And just enjoy it, didn't worry about reception
Did it only for me, no exemptions
[Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
One day, the plays on my song started to grow,
Everyone's listening, hitting that like button,
My creation praised.
[Chorus]
My monster,
Ravenous for listens and likes,
Born from hidden self,
No return to what was before.
My monster,
Always begging for more
A voice from inside,
That I cannot ignore
I CANNOT IGNORE
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 2]
The frenzy ends, ordinary days,
A wonderful creation,
The satisfaction of completion,
Yet now it feels like nothing.
[Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
Never satisfied, without number one
Forgetting myself, what have I done
Now all I'm left with
[Chorus]
My monster,
Ravenous for listens and likes,
Born from hidden self,
No return to what was before.
My monster,
Always begging for more,
A voice from inside,
That I cannot ignore
I CANNOT IGNORE
[Instrumental Interlude 2]
[Bridge]
I remember the days when creating was pure joy,
Every stroke and note, bringing a thrill,
No need for likes or praise,
Just the love for the art, and the passion to fill.
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
My monster
Ravenous for listens and likes
Born from hidden self
No return to what was before
My monster
Always begging for more
A voice from inside
That I cannot ignore
[Chorus]
My monster
Ravenous for listens and likes
Born from hidden self
No return to what was before
My monster
Always begging for more
A voice from inside
That I cannot ignore
I CANNOT IGNORE
[Instrumental Outro]
[Outro]
My monster,
The joy of creating!
The satisfaction of completion!
Let this be enough!
I am my monster,
Myself (Myself)
NOT ANOTHER.
[End]
