Monster 歌词

I had more than ten years to prepare Prepare myself for this day But when you rang the bell and stood in the door I didn't know what to say Maybe I had expected to see blood on your hands Something evil or gross in your eyes But there stood a friendly elderly man And all I could think was: Time flies As if I don't know who you are As if you don't know who I am As if I don't know what you've done Now we sit here like father and son I'm not sure you're aware that I know what you've done I don't know how much you recall Or if all disappeared in a thick cloud of booze And you don't remember at all Or maybe you managed to block it all out The screams and the tears that she shed When a scared little girl learnt that the monsters to fear Were not those living under her bed As if I don't know who you are As if you don't know who I am As if I don't know what you've done Now we sit here like father and son And now we're talking face to face How can you live with your disgrace? The wounds that you've given no time could heal Monster, monster As if I don't know who you are As if you don't know who I am As if I don't know what you've done Now we sit here like father and son And now we're talking face to face How can you live with your disgrace? The wounds that you've given no time could heal Monster, monster And now we're talking face to face How can you live with your disgrace? And you live with the guilt, with the shame, with yourself? Monster, monster It may very well be that I am not fair I have never walked in your shoes Maybe you have become a much better man When you managed, you got off the booze So I'm sorry if I appear distant and cold I am trying as good as I can But I prefer my monsters with the face of a monster Not the face of a friendly old man I can't help I know who you are By now you should know who I am I'll never forget what you've done So we can't be like father and son
