Monsters

[Jessamy]

Somewhere inside this closet
Your whole life exists
An evil little secret
That keeps you so nervous

You're boarding up your windows
In fetal on the floor
But what you're keeping out
Is on the wrong side of the door

i know the reason you're running scared
I met the monster inside your head
You'll never know the feeling of being alive
It's not enough, it never stops coming
It's not enough, so take a breath say goodbye

Your skin is crawling on you
There's shadows on the ground
And now the room is spinning
Oh God what was that sound?

The fear is paralyzing
Trapped here inside yourself
Your will to live is dying
Is dying, you're dying

i know the reason you're running scared
I met the monster inside your head
You'll never know the feeling of being yourself
It's not enough, it never stops coming
It's not enough, so take a breath say goodbye

Say goodbye
You're dying, dying

i know the reason you're running scared
I met the monster inside your head
You'll never know the feeling of being alive
It's not enough, it never stops coming
It's not enough, so take a breath say goodbye

I can't wait to hear this! How is it?

[Jessamy]

Oh I love it! It's very eerie, has a "nightmare before Christmas" feel to it

[Heather]

Sounds awesome, can't wait to hear it!!!

[summertime<3]

new song!

[Kestrel]

I can't wait to hear it. I should have the deluxe edition tomorrow.

The intro to this song is connected to Howards Tale, I think the song may be almost a sequel.

[Mayumi]

I wanna hear it. D:

Can't wait to get this tomorrow (or hopefully tomorrow since I don't know if stores will actually carry it). If not Amazon it is or maybe I will just wait until Sunday.

I heard the first 30 seconds on Amazon...
When the song starts to get good, 30 seconds are over! T___T

[Kestrel]

Great song. It's interesting to think of it as related to Howard's Tale. I wish the lyrics went a little deeper. They've got a great feel and if they went deeper like Howard's Tale, they could have that same, really moving effect. I guess I could see the monster(s) (interesting that it's never actually plural in the lyrics, but maybe they didn't want it to get confused with the similarly-themed Skillet song) as being in Howard's head...

[David]

What does everybody else hear in the creepy intro? It's kind of hard to make out. I hear

"Howard, Howard, playing in the sandbar
Howard, Howard, blame this on Howard"

[blister]

I'm damn curious to hear it! Can't wait to get home and listen to it!

[summertime<3]

The sample sounds like it's going to be good! Can't wait to buy it!

For me, really listing to it, its not perse a sequel to howards tale, unless the voice in the story is Howard's love interest, which could be. Now that I typed that that makes a lot of sense actually.

I love how universal some of their lyrics are. This could be for anyone, I think we all have our "monster" so to speak.

^^ its definitely fetal, as in the fetal position. feeble doesn't make too much sense

god i am so in love with this song....i'm pretty much 100% convinced that this is about the other boy at the end of Howard's Tale
