see that hero on the stage

you know it isn t me

hidden in the dark is where I lie

see that lover so adored

I m quite the opposite

that s not to say that I don t dream of what it s like

see the children full of cheer

I wasn t one of them

growing up I never figured why

still I ll be searching still I ll be searching

for one who feels the same

but I don t know if there will ever be the day

I m the monster from the story books of age

the stranger that they yell to stay away

the one they hide their children from

a blemish in the white ha

the song that no one ever wants to play

they say that I m the villain but

I just don t know why

I m the beast within your eyes

see that daughter being raised

I wish it wasn t me

gentle kind expected to behave

still I ll be searching still I ll be searching

for one who feels the same

that s when I looked outside the walls and heard you sing

I m the monster from the story books of age

the stranger that they yell to stay away

the one they hide their children from

a blemish in the white ha

the song that no one ever wants to play

they say that I m the villain but

I just don t know why

I m the beast within your eyes

I m the monster from the story books of age

but to somebody else we re just the same

the one to hide the children from

the fear inside their minds ha

the song that no one ever wants to play

they say that I m the villain but

who gets to decide

I m the beast within your eyes

see that flower in the vase

it patiently awaits

for another like me to arrive
