Monster Made Of Memories

Citizen Soldier


Woke up again in the pouring rain
I feel the windows shake, thunder in my brain
Every thought is like a hurricane
Destroying everything but it leaves no trace

Four walls made of skin, feeling paper-thin
Don't know if they can take what they're holding in
It's death threat déjà vu, out for blood again
It's out for blood again

I'm a cage, I'm a prison for what no one sees
Ashamed like I'm sleeping with the enemy
No one believes me, but I'm six feet deep
With a monster made of memories

It's alive like a parasite inside of me
And it feeds of the trauma of what used to be
But there's no shred of evidence 'cause I don't bleed
From this monster made of memories

Monster made of memories
Monster made of memories

My darkest hour made a creature
That feeds on the fear of everything I can't forget
It walks beside me, gun against my head
So I look terrified till I've paid the debt

Four walls made of skin, feeling paper-thin
And I know they can't take what they're holding in
It's death threat déjà vu, out for blood again
It's out for blood again
(It's out for blood)

I'm a cage, I'm a prison for what no one sees
Ashamed like I'm sleeping with the enemy
And no one believes me, but I'm six feet deep
With a monster made of memories

It's alive like a parasite inside of me
And it feeds of the trauma of what used to be
But there's no shred of evidence 'cause I don't bleed
From this monster made of memories

Up all night 'cause I can't sleep
With a monster made of memories
Keeps me scared so it can feed
It's a monster made of memories

Up all night 'cause we can't sleep
With a monster made of memories
Keeps us scared so we won't speak
It's a monster made of memories

I'm a cage, I'm a prison for what no one sees
Ashamed like I'm sleeping with the enemy
No one believes me, but I'm six feet deep
With a monster made of memories

It's alive like a parasite inside of me
And it feeds of the trauma of what used to be
But there's no shred of evidence 'cause I don't bleed
From this monster made of memories

Up all night 'cause we can't sleep
With a monster made of memories
Keeps us scared so we won't speak
It's a monster made of memories
