Monster Lyrics by Mating Ritual

Light Myself on Fire

2018

[Verse 1]
I could tell you that I’m right
That I know just what to do
I'm a quarterback with nothing written in my playbook
You can talk to anyone
They can tell you anything
But absolutely no one knows how tomorrow's gonna be

[Chorus]
I’m a parasite without a host
Turning into some kind of monster
Staring down the barrel at the end of the world
I’m a burning man in a wooden room
Turning into some kind of monster
I don't wanna be myself anymore

[Verse 2]
If you burn a forest down
Then the seeds are gonna take
And in a few short years there will be life at the gate
But if you cut the lumber down
And you harvest everything
There’s nothing left to grow and your children will pay

[Chorus]
I’m a parasite without a host
Turning into some kind of monster
Staring down the barrel at the end of the world
Well I’m a burning man in a wooden room
Turning into some kind of monster
I don’t wanna be myself anymore

I’m a parasite without a host
Turning into some kind of monster
I’m a parasite without a host
Turning into some kind of monster
I’m a parasite without a host
I’m a parasite without a host
I don't wanna be myself anymore

I don't wanna be some kind of monster
I don't wanna be some kind of monster
I don't wanna be some kind of monster
I don't wanna be some kind of monster
