How to Make a Monster

[Intro]

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

[Verse 1]

Uh, love, right from the start, you thought that I would change

That you'd mend my heart, and fix my broken ways

[Pre-Chorus]

But you gave in to somethin' that wasn't enough

And you watch as it's all fallin' down, down, down

I came with a warnin', you choose to ignore it

Now you watch as I burn it down, down, down, down

[Chorus]

I know you wanted me to be your lover, but we were never gonna be forever

I told you once, but you don't remember, told you twice, but you won't surrender

Now I'm yours, now you're deep in danger, it's not my fault, yeah, it's in my nature

You really know how to make a monster, a monster

[Post-Chorus]

'Cause you gave your heart to a boy who will fuck it up

And you fell in love with the thought that we'd last forever

[Verse 2]

My stone-cold heart was never meant to beat

Now this corpse of love is rotting in the street

[Chorus]

I know you wanted me to be your lover, but we were never gonna be forever

Told you once, but you don't remember, told you twice, but you won't surrender

You'd better check under your covers, I'll grip you up, and I'll pull you under

And that's what happens when you make a monster, I've gotcha

[Post-Chorus]

'Cause you gave your heart to a boy who will fuck it up

And you fell in love with the thought that we'd last forever

'Cause you gave your heart to a boy who will fuck it up

And you fell in love with the thought that we'd last forever

[Refrain]

That's what happens when you make a monster

That's what happens when you make a monster

That's what happens when you make a monster

That's what happens when you make a monster

[Bridge]

That's what happens when you make a monster

It always comes right back to haunt you

The dead of night when you hear the thunder

You're all alone, and I'm thinking of you

And now you check under all the covers

I see you there from the bed I'm under

I've got you now, and I'm yours forever

You really know how to make a monster

[Refrain]

That's what happens when you make a monster

That's what happens when you make a monster

That's what happens when you make a monster

That's what happens when you make a monster

Oh-oh
