| Hurricane Bells – Monsters Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song can apply to a man or woman. It basically describes the story of a person who has something dark in their past that has affected their psychological outlook on life and their self identity. Whatever the “dark” something was that occurred, they no longer view themselves as a regular member of society who can easily blend and interact with others. They are now a monster. A creature to be shunned, feared, and watched out for. They are constantly at war with the monster that they feel they have as their true persona. They want to forget and be normal, but they can't because whatever event that occurred has permanently changed their life. They have managed to subdue the monster and portray a bland façade of life that they are okay and not on the verge of a breakdown. Recently the person/monster has been approached by a regular person of society. They are afraid of letting this person get close because then their true identity would be unleashed and the person could get hurt. ACTUAL EXAMPLES: ~a daughter addicted to drugs who doesn’t want to drag their concerned mother into the chaos and ruin their family ~a man who used to be promiscuous, caught an STD, and then changed his life who doesn’t want to infect his fiancé that he loves |
