Bm Under the knife I surrendered The innocence yours to consume G You cut it away Em And you filled me up with hate Bm Into the silence you sent me Into the fire consumed G You thought I'd forget Em But it's always in my head G You're the pulse in my veins Em You're the war that I wage Bm Can you change me? A Can you change me? G You're the love that I hate Em You're the drug that I take Bm Will you cage me? A Will you cage me? G You're the pulse in my veins Em You're the war that I wage Bm Can you change me? A Can you change me? G Em From the monster you made me? Bm A Bm The monster you made me? Bm This is the world you've created The product of what I've become G My soul and my youth Em Seems it's all for you to use Bm If I could take back the moment I let you get under my skin G Relent or resist? Em Seems the monster always wins G You're the pulse in my veins Em You're the war that I wage Bm Can you change me? A Can you change me? G You're the love that I hate Em You're the drug that I take Bm Will you cage me? A Will you cage me? G You're the pulse in my veins Em You're the war that I wage Bm Can you change me? A Can you change me? G Em From the monster you made me? Bm A Em The monster you made me? G Bm My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul A Em I'll lift you up and then I'll let you go G Bm I've made an art of digging shallow holes A Em I drop the darkness in and watch it grow G Bm My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul A Em Who knew the emptiness could be so cold G Bm I've lost the pieces that could make me whole A I am the darkness, I'm a monster G You're the pulse in my veins Em You're the war that I wage Bm Can you change me? A Can you change me? G You're the love that I hate Em You're the drug that I take Bm Will you cage me? A Will you cage me? G You're the pulse in my veins Em You're the war that I wage Bm Can you change me? A Can you change me? G Em From the monster you made me? Bm A The monster you made me? G Em The monster you made me? Bm A Em The monster you made me?
