(Intro)
You built the cross
You forged the nails
Now watch your kingdom fail
(Verse 1)
Crucify me on the cross you built
Bleed the truth from shattered feet
Look in my eyes — what do you see?
A mirror of your hypocrisy
Every word you used to break
Every lie you chose to make
Buried deep inside my chest
Now the beast will do the rest
(Pre-Chorus)
You wanted war
You got it now
(Chorus)
You made the nails
You drove them in
You lit the fire
Beneath my skin
Bow down
To the rage you made
I AM THE MONSTER
YOU FUCKING CREATED
(Verse 2)
Throw your stones and hide your hands
Preach your lies and call it plans
Every scar across my back
Is a road you can’t walk back
You tried to bury me in shame
Tried to drown me in the blame
But pressure builds beneath the dirt
And pressure always makes it burst
(BREAKDOWN (CHANT)
(music drops)
You pushed
Too far
You dug
Too deep
Now watch
The monster
YOU MADE
BREAK
FREE
(music stops — crowd chant)
ONE MORE NAIL
DRIVE IT IN
ONE MORE NAIL
DRIVE IT IN
(band slams back in)
YOU MADE ME
YOU MADE ME
YOU MADE ME
(Final Chorus)
You made the nails
You drove them in
You lit the fire
Beneath my skin
Bow down
To the rage you made
I AM THE MONSTER
YOU CREATED
(FINAL BREAKDOWN (SLOW + HEAVY)
You built the cross
You forged the nails
You dug the grave
You sealed my fate
Now hear the sound
Of your mistake
The monster
YOU CREATE
(pause — single hits)
ONE
MORE
NAIL
(band slams)
DRIVE
IT
IN
(crowd chant)
YOU MADE ME
YOU MADE ME
YOU MADE ME
(Outro)
Now bow
To the monster
YOU CREATED
