Unbecoming+Monster - Starset

Lyrics by：Dustin Bates/Johnny Andrews/Rob Graves

Composed by：Dustin Bates/Johnny Andrews/Rob Graves

Under the knife I surrendered

The innocence yours to consume

You cut it away

And you filled me up with hate

Into the silence you sent me

Into the fire consumed

You thought I'd forget

But it's always in my head

You're the pulse in my veins

You're the war that I wage

Can you change me

Can you change me

You're the love that I hate

You're the drug that I take

Will you cage me

Will you cage me

You're the pulse in my veins

You're the war that I wage

Can you change me

Can you change me

From the monster you made me

From the monster you made me

This is the world you've created

The product of what I've become

My soul and my youth

Seems it's all for you to use

If I could take back the moment

I'd let you get under my skin

Relent or resist

Cause the monster always wins

You're the pulse in my veins

You're the war that I wage

Can you change me

Can you change me

You're the love that I hate

You're the drug that I take

Will you cage me

Will you cage me

You're the pulse in my veins

You're the war that I wage

Can you change me

Can you change me

From the monster you made me

From the monster you made me

My heart's an artifice a decoy soul

I'll lift you up and then I'll let you go

I've made an art of digging shallow holes

I drop the darkness in and watch it grow

My heart's an artifice a decoy soul

Who knew the emptiness could be so cold

I lost the parts of me that make me whole

I am the darkness

I'm a monster

You're the pulse in my veins

You're the war that I wage

Can you change me

Can you change me

You're the love that I hate

You're the drug that I take

Will you cage me

Will you cage me

You're the pulse in my veins

You're the war that I wage

Can you change me

Can you change me

From the monster you made me

From the monster you made me

From the monster you made me

From the monster you made me

I lost myself into the night

And I flew higher

Than I had ever

But I still felt small

I clipped my wings and fell from flight

To open water

And floated farther

Away from myself

And I swam in the wakes of imposters

Just to feel what it's like to pretend

There's no dreams in the lakes only monsters

And the monsters are my only friends

They're all that I was

And ever could be

Eyes in the dead still water

Tried but it pushed back harder

Cauterized and atrophied

This is my unbecoming

Knives in the backs of martyrs

Lives in the burning fodder

Cauterized and atrophied

This is my unbecoming

You found me drifted out to sea

It's automatic

It's telepathic

You always knew me

And you laugh as I search for a harbor

As you point where the halo had been

But the light in your eyes has been squandered

There's no angel in you in the end

And all that I was

I left behind me

Eyes in the dead still water

Tried but it pushed back harder

Cauterized and atrophied

This is my unbecoming

Knives in the backs of martyrs

Lives in the burning fodder

Cauterized and atrophied

This is my unbecoming

Now I wait

This metamorphosis

All that is left is the change

Selfish fate

I think you made me this

Under the water I wait

Eyes in the dead still water

Tried but it pushed back harder

Cauterized and atrophied

This is my unbecoming

Knives in the backs of martyrs

Lives in the burning fodder

Cauterized and atrophied

This is my unbecoming
