Icarus The Owl – The Monster Within lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a monster crawling underneath my skin;
It lives in the back of your mind
What are values when it's only you and me
Fighting for the rest of our lives?

[Chorus]
Don't be afraid of all the fiction in what I do
When no one answers
You're moving on and moving out
The games we play are set up only so you lose
When all the cancer ate up his body, it broke me down

[Verse 2]
There's a place where we all go when
The light is taken away from the white of our eyes
It's not heaven, it's the flatlands
There's a field there where we spend most of our lives

[Refrain]
Do you ever really learn?
All your problems are self-induced with easy solutions
Solutions

[Chorus]
Don't be afraid of all the fiction in what I do
When no one answers
You're moving on and moving out
The games we play are set up only so you lose
When all the cancer ate up his body, it broke me down

[Bridge]
A man can't help himself, can't help himself
We can hide all we want
We are shackled by diplomacy and moral police
Soon enough, the skin will break
And let all our demons out
They will take our inhibitions hostage
And if the demands are not met...

We become who we are (x2)
Who we are
We will fall apart (x2)
We become who we are (x2)
Who we are
We will fall apart (x2)

[Chorus]
Don't be afraid of all the fiction in what I do
When no one answers
You're moving on and moving out
The games we play are set up only so you lose
When all the cancer ate up his body, it broke me down

[Refrain]
Do you ever really learn?
All your problems are self-induced with easy solutions
Solutions
