Heart Of The Monster Poem by Kelly Zion

Let me lead you down this dark road
Hold my hand as the monsters come out
Let me show you what I go through
Let's both lie low
Let me show you how good it gets
Let me show you how little's left
Of all this hope I've held onto.

Let me show you all I know
All of me I've lost for you
Hold my hand, you know it's true
I've lost myself in this darkroom
Watch my life like a movie reel,
Don't stop it now, you know it's real

What I've become is a part of the dark,
What I've become is the heart of the Monster
Follow me to you ever after
Let me lead you to the rafters
Watch the world spin down below
Like we're dancing in a carnival
Hold my hand, hold my soul
You'll be the one I've never held
Kiss the lips of my skull
Let you let me take me out

You know I've become something else
But you still know who I am
Lead me to your dead end
Lead me to your riverbed

The nights aren't lonely in your world
The days aren't scary in your arms
Come scratch out my stone
Breath me back the life I lost
Bleed be back the blood it cost
Living in the heart of the monster

You know I've lost something here
Breathing in these empty years
Dreaming for so many years
Dreaming for so long it seemed
That all I dreamed was just a dream

Come, take me to your world,
Pluck my heart out of the water

The nights aren't lonely in your world
The days aren't scary in your arms
Come scratch out my stone
Breath me back the life I lost
Bleed me back the blood it cost
Living in the arms of the Monster.
