Verse 1: C#m Under the knife I surrendered The innocence yours to consume A You cut it away F#m And you filled me up with hate C#m Into the silence you sent me Into the fire consumed A You thought I'd forget F#m But it's always in my head
Chorus: A You're the pulse in my veins F#m You're the war that I wage C#m Can you change me? B Can you change me? A You're the love that I hate F#m You're the drug that I take C#m Will you cage me? B Will you cage me? A You're the pulse in my veins F#m You're the war that I wage C#m Can you change me? B Can you change me? A F#m From the monster you made me? C#m B The monster you made me? Verse 2: C#m This is the world you've created The product of what I've become A My soul and my youth F#m Seems it's all for you to use C#m If I could take back the moment I let you get under my skin A Relent or resist? F#m Seems the monster always wins Chorus: A You're the pulse in my veins F#m You're the war that I wage C#m Can you change me? B Can you change me? A You're the love that I hate F#m You're the drug that I take C#m Will you cage me? B Will you cage me? A You're the pulse in my veins F#m You're the war that I wage C#m Can you change me? B Can you change me? A F#m From the monster you made me? C#m B The monster you made me? Bridge: A C#m My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul B F#m I'll lift you up and then I'll let you go A C#m I've made an art of digging shallow holes B F#m I drop the darkness in and watch it grow A C#m My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul B F#m Who knew the emptiness could be so cold A C#m I've lost the pieces that could make me whole B I am the darkness, I'm a monster Chorus: A You're the pulse in my veins F#m You're the war that I wage C#m Can you change me? B Can you change me? A You're the love that I hate F#m You're the drug that I take C#m Will you cage me? B Will you cage me? A You're the pulse in my veins F#m You're the war that I wage C#m Can you change me? B Can you change me? A F#m From the monster you made me? C#m B The monster you made me? A F#m The monster you made me? C#m B F#m The monster you made me?
