The secret side of me
I never let you see
I keep it caged
But I can’t control it
So stay away from me
The beast is ugly
I feel the rage
And I just can’t hold it
It’s scratching on the walls
In the closet, in the halls
It comes awake
And I can’t control it
Hiding under the bed
In my body, in my head
Why won’t somebody come and save me from this?
Make it end!
[Chorus]
I feel it deep within,
It’s just beneath the skin
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I hate what I’ve become
The nightmare’s just begun
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I feel like a monster
My secret side I keep
Hid under lock and key
I keep it caged
But I can’t control it
Cause if I let him out
He’ll tear me up
And break me down
Why won’t somebody come and save me from this?
Make it end!
I feel it deep within,
It’s just beneath the skin
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I hate what I’ve become
The nightmare’s just begun
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I feel like a monster
It’s hiding in the dark
It’s teeth are razor sharp
There’s no escape for me
It wants my soul,
It wants my heart
No one can hear me scream
Maybe it’s just a dream
Or maybe it’s inside of me
Stop this monster!
[Chorus]
I feel it deep within,
It’s just beneath the skin
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I hate what I’ve become
The nightmare’s just begun
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I feel it deep within,
It’s just beneath the skin
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I’m gonna lose control
Here’s something radical
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster

Thanks for the ping.
As I read the lyrics and listen to the song, it describes me to a T. As an addict in recovery I do have a very real, very lethal monster in me. I alone cannot control it. With the help pf others like me and my “Higher Power” God. I can keep it “under lock and key”.
