Something dangerous is waking up inside of me
It's been creeping its way into my psychology
Keeping me up all night, this voice inside, it tortures me
But it's slowly starting to pique my curiosity

'Cause this world can be so cold, gimme shelter from the storm
And it's keeping me warm, keeping me warm

Think I created a monster
And now I'll never be alone again
I think I made myself a new best friend
Yeah, it's making me stronger
I created a monster
And now I'll never be the same again
And no, I'll never feel pain again
And I'll do what, I'll do what I wanna

I've been so deep inside this hell so long, I like it here
I walk these city streets alone so I can disappear
And lately, I find when I look into the mirror
There's a stranger staring back and smiling ear-to-ear

Yeah, this world can be so cold, gimme shelter from the storm
And it's keeping me warm, keeping me warm

Think I created a monster
And now I'll never be alone again
I think I made myself a new best friend
Yeah, it's making me stronger
I created a monster
And now I'll never be the same again
And no, I'll never feel pain again
And I'll do what, I'll do what I wanna

So, I created a monster
Think, I think, I think, I think I made myself a new best friend
Think I created a monster
Yeah, oh

Yeah, this world can be so cold, I need shelter from the storm
And it's keeping me warm, keeping me warm

Think I created a monster
And now I'll never be alone again (no)
I think I made myself a new best friend (think I made myself a new best friend)
Yeah, it's making me stronger
I created a monster (whoa)
And now I'll never be the same again
And no, I'll never feel pain again (pain again)
And I'll do what, I'll do what I wanna

So, I created a monster
(Think I made myself a new best friend)
