[Intro]
Bbm
[Verse 1]
Bbm
Under the knife I surrendered
The innocence yours to consume
G
You cut it away
Em
And you filled me up with hate
Bbm
Into the silence you sent me
Into the fire consumed
G
You thought I’d forget
Em
But it’s always in my head
[Chorus]
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?
[Verse 2]
Bbm
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
Bbm
If I could take back the moment
I let you get under my skin
G
Relent or resist?
Em
Seems the monster always wins
[Chorus]
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 Em
The monster you made me?
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
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
The monster you made me?
G Em
The monster you made me?
Bm A Em
The monster you made me?
