Heavy Metal. Song: Something Nasty.

Staring at the face I've grown to hate
This thing that breathes behind my skin
What am I becoming?
What have I become?
The monster that they're running from
Is me, is me

I feel it rising up inside
Can't hold it back, can't run and hide
The beast they made me learn to be
Is breaking free, is breaking free

They point their fingers at my scars
Call me broken, call me wrong
I've been labeled from the start
But I've been fighting all along

Every word they speak like poison
Every look cuts to the bone
They created their own demon
Now they reap what they have sown

In the corner of their whispers
I can hear my given name
Wrapped in fear and accusation
I'm the one they always blame

Mirror shows me what they see
Something twisted, something vile
But I know the truth inside me
I've been broken for a while

All their hatred feeds the fire
Burns away what I once was
Now I wear their darkest desire
Like a crown without a cause

They wanted me to be their monster
So I learned to bare my teeth
Every scar's a lesson taught here
In the hell that lies beneath

I am everything they fear most
I am everything they made
From their cruelty I was born here
In their image I was shaped

There's no going back from this place
No redemption to be found
I accept what I have become
Let their judgment burn me down

So call me monster, call me devil
Call me everything you hate
I'll embrace your condemnation
It's too damn late, too damn late

I am your abomination
I am what you made me be
Now face your own creation
Face me, face me
