Under the knife I surrendered An innocence yours to consume You cut it away And you filled me up with hate Into the silence you sent me Into the fire consumed You thought I'd forget But it's ice near the end You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me? Can you change me? You're the love that I hate You're the drug that I take Will you change me? Will you change me? You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me? Can you change me? From the monster you made me From the monster you made me This is the world you've created The product of what I've become My soul and my youth Seems it's all for you to use If I could take back the moment I let you get under my skin For better or worse Seems the monster always wins You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me? Can you change me? You're the love that I hate You're the drug that I take Will you change me? Will you change me? You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me? Can you change me? From the monster you made me From the monster you made me My heart's knife is a decoy soul I lift you up and then I let you go I've made an art of digging shadows I'll trap the darkness in and watch it grow My heart's knife is a decoy soul Oh no, the emptiness could be so cold I'm not supposed to be the nightmare you hold But I am the darkness of my time You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me? Can you change me? You're the love that I hate You're the drug that I take Will you change me? Will you change me? You're the pulse in my veins You're the war that I wage Can you change me? Can you change me? From the monster you made me From the monster you made me From the monster you made me From the monster you made me
