Lyrics

It Was a Monstering

Uh, I would rather have
I would rather have a friend than a good memory
'Cause memories
And a yearning heart
Never held me close
Never helped me out

And I don't like the feeling
No, I hate it

It was a monstering
It was a monstering at nearly ninety thousand feet
Or so they say
For I would not know
'Cause I don't look back
And I don't look forward

And I don't like the feeling
No, I hate it
And I don't like the feeling
No, I don't
But that's the cherry on my coffin

Slenderman
Purple Aki
Cherub Man
I can see you now
Lava Man
Sickle Man
Why'd you smash into each other?
Granite Man
Hollow Man
Gruesome Man
Shadow Man
You tap, you tap my window
Like the wind
Dragon Twin
The most beautiful thing
Spinal Man
Scaled Man
Plasma Man
I want your head
In my head
Alive

I don't like the feeling
No, I hate it
I don't like the feeling
No, I don't
But that's the cherry on my coffin
