Monster Behind The Mask

Echo of shadows, lurking deep inside,

A heart that’s torn, where demons reside.

Into the night, where fears take flight,

I wear this mask, but I’m losing the fight.

Caged in silence, beneath the skin,

The monster whispers, urging me to sin.

I laugh with courage, I hide the pain,

Drowning in madness, held by the chain.

Falling from grace, I’m torn at the seams,

Save me, I cry, from unholy dreams.

But I break the day with the screams I ignore,

Like a hero crafted from scars that I wore.

Step into the light, push the shadows away,

I am the savior in a world gone gray.

I’m a monster inside, but I wear a brave face,

Fighting through battles in this twisted space.

With every heartbeat, I stand tall,

A warrior rising, I won’t let me fall.

Underneath the armor, there’s a soul to defend,

I fight for the hope that this struggle will end.

The faintest glimmer in a sea of despair,

A flicker of light, cutting through the air.

Forged in the fires of my darkest days,

I rise from the ashes, reclaiming my ways.

Drowning my fears in a tempest of sound,

I’ll carry the weight, my spirit unbound.

(Solo guitar riff, increasing in intensity)

When the night whispers, I’ll scream my resolve,

For each scar I bear makes me strong and evolved.

I shatter the glass, revealing my truth,

This monster I fear is the source of my proof.

I’m a monster inside, but I wear a brave face,

Fighting through battles in this twisted space.

With every heartbeat, I stand tall,

A warrior rising, I won’t let me fall.

Underneath the armor, there’s a soul to defend,

I fight for the hope that this struggle will end.

(Gradually slowing down, clean guitar outro)

So I’ll wear my battle scars like a crown on my head,

From the monster within, a hero will spread.

No more hiding, no more disguise,

In this epic battle, I’ll claim the skies.
