Bm
Under the knife I surrendered

The innocence yours to consume
             G
You cut it away
         Em
And you filled me up with hate
Bm
Into the silence you sent me

Into the fire consumed
                    G
You thought I'd forget
            Em
But it's always in my head

            G
You're the pulse in my veins
            Em
You're the war that I wage
          Bm
Can you change me?
          A
Can you change me?
            G
You're the love that I hate
             Em
You're the drug that I take
          Bm
Will you cage me?
          A
Will you cage me?
            G
You're the pulse in my veins
            Em
You're the war that I wage
          Bm
Can you change me?
          A
Can you change me?
                      G         Em
From the monster you made me?
                 Bm      A     Bm
The monster you made me?

Bm
This is the world you've created

The product of what I've become
                G
My soul and my youth
           Em
Seems it's all for you to use
Bm
If I could take back the moment

I let you get under my skin
             G
Relent or resist?
           Em
Seems the monster always wins

            G
You're the pulse in my veins
            Em
You're the war that I wage
          Bm
Can you change me?
          A
Can you change me?
            G
You're the love that I hate

The monster you made me?

              G                  Bm
My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul
              A                         Em
I'll lift you up and then I'll let you go
             G                       Bm
I've made an art of digging shallow holes
            A                         Em
I drop the darkness in and watch it grow
              G                  Bm
My heart's an artifice, a decoy soul
             A                      Em
Who knew the emptiness could be so cold 
               G                          Bm
I've lost the pieces that could make me whole
          A
I am the darkness, I'm a monster

            G
You're the pulse in my veins
            Em
You're the war that I wage
          Bm
Can you change me?
