Monster in Disguise

(Verse 1) Met you at the bookstore, buried in a tome Smiling face, gentle eyes, felt right back home Shared our love for Austen, whispered secrets low Never saw the monster, the darkness you would show (Pre-Chorus) Whispered sweet nothings, built me up so high Didn't see the cracks beneath, the venom in your lie (Chorus) Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde, playing both the parts Sunshine smile masking shadows tearing worlds apart Twisted fairy tale, monster in disguise You built my trust, then flicked a switch, watched the trust vaporize (Verse 2) Promised grand adventures, whispered of the light Led me down dark alleys, lost in endless night Used my deepest fears, twisted them like strings Marionette on fire, dancing as you sing (Pre-Chorus) Painted me delusional, a pawn in your cruel game Lost in your web of whispers, never felt the same (Chorus) Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde, playing both the parts Sunshine smile masking shadows tearing worlds apart Twisted fairy tale, monster in disguise You built my trust, then flicked a switch, watched the trust vaporize (Bridge) Maybe karma's sleeping, haven't seen it yet But the clock is ticking, honey, your debt's not paid off yet I'll break these puppet strings, rewrite this tragic play The damsel's not so helpless, she's gonna find her way (Chorus) Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde, game's finally done The mask is ripped to pieces, the damage you've begun Twisted fairy tale, the monster's lost its crown No more playing victim, I'm tearing you down (Outro) This house of cards you built, it's crumbling to dust The truth will set me free, your reign is turning to rust So go crawl back in the shadows, where you belong The monster's finally exposed, it won't be singing its song
