lyrics

MONSTER
I’m living with expectations, everyone here is getting relations
But I’m still here all alone, just trying to find my way back home
There’s just one thing messing up my head, I can’t forget these sticks of bread
I just can’t help it, I just can’t help it
As a wise man once said, the corner of my bed is like arms without a being
Hold me closer in the evening
Don’t know what to say, don’t know what’s right, am I even fighting the right fight Is it day or is it night, breaking through the daylight
Am I a monster or am I a child?
Am I a monster or am I just a child?
Save yourselves, I’ve lost my mind
Am I monster, am I a monster?
Possibly someday I could uproot and runaway, but this darkness holds me down Turn that frown upside down, thanks Jack, your cliches keep me calm
They say it’s all okay, everything will go away
someday when you are older, growing older, growing colder
But I want it better now, 3 years and I still count Well look at that, there’s no turning back
Tell me what you think, have a I gone over the end? Just looking for someone I can call my friend
I could tell anything, that I can trust
Won’t leave me in the corner, won’t leave me there to rust
I know it’s pathetic and I know it’s immature
I just want things like we had it before
when nobody thought and nobody cared
About the way they look or their makeup or their hair
I know its pathetic, I’m only 14 but take a look at the things I’ve seen Can’t say it out loud so I put it in a song
The only thing that’s right in a path of wrongs
I exaggerate, I make things up, act all hard, act all tough
Don’t try figure me out, make it hard to tell
Just need a coin and a wishing well
Am I a monster or am I a child?
Am I a monster or am I just a child? Save yourselves, I’ve lost my mind Am I monster, am I a monster?

about

The Elephant Trees image

The Elephant Trees Manchester, UK

Failing to comply with the norm, The Elephant Trees are here to represent those that feel like they don’t belong.

The Elephant Trees are a MODERN ALTERNATIVE ROCK band infused with a splash of Indietronica and the occasional Shimmer of Pop for people wanting empowering and unapologetic anthems.
They sound like Everything Everything mixed with the vocal styles of Twenty One Pilots and Florence ... more
