A year ago if you had asked me about love
I would have told you I didn't give a damn
Back then nothing mattered
I was going to live and die alone
That much I knew
I knew I was a monster
No one could love a monster
Then you came
And everything changed
With that idiotic smile plastered on your face
That cheery spirit nothing could damper
Those compassionate words that you always spoke to me
You spoke to me
All of me
Do you understand how unfair that is?
You speak to me so sweetly
Smile at me so beautifully
It makes me start to think
Of thoughts of which I have no right to think
That maybe even I
The Monster
Have a chance at love
You saw me and yet you didn't run
You were scared and you stayed with me
What's the matter with you?
Why do you do this?
Why do I love you?
I know I'm not worthy
I'm not worth your time
Yet you still call to me
And smile at me
You bring me joy
You light up the darkness
I have so little time left
It's just not fair
I won't burden you
I'll just enjoy what I have now
Because later I won't have that
I won't have you
Just the memory of that smile
And the idea that maybe
You could love me too
