No one knows that
I'm secretly a monster
I keep it locked up,
deep inside myself
if I let it out
well then your good
as dead
I'm a monster, a beast
darkness is in my heart,
darkness rules my life
I am the darkness
I howl to the full moon
at night, I stalk the people
of the cities, towns and villages
for hunger of
blood, fear and I give no mercy
no one knows I'm secretly a monster...
