Kissing Monsters (song version)

She’s so pretty

Yet, why does she hurt

Herself so?

I came to save her

But she closed herself off

From me and the world.

Falling deeper and deeper

Into the Devil’s hole.

 

(chorus)

Here she is,

But can’t get out.

Seems like everyday

She’s kissing monsters.

Always kissing monsters.

 

Day by day, it’s a struggle.

It feels like she’s crawling

Slowly through.

Doing what she can

Just to get by.

There she is.

All alone.

Beyond the light.

All she has is herself.

Is there anyone to save her?

 

(chorus)

 

The darkness is scary

And yet, she keeps fading.

Deeper and deeper she goes.

Dying for a way out.

She can’t help it

Cause everyday

She’s kissing monsters.

Please darling,

Just listen to me.

I have come to save you.

Try not to stray

Or be afraid.

 

(chorus x2)

 

I did what I could to save her

But she couldn’t help it.

She escaped last night

And off she went again,

Kissing those monsters.

Always kissing monsters.

I don't know if you've heard of the band Flyleaf, but I could just picture Lacey singing this song , its perfect, its lyrics sad and dark but yet has this beauty to it, reaching out and helping someone in struggle but no matter what the choice will always be in their hands. I liked the metaphor's used and the lyrics draw you in, could help humming the lyrics out loud making my own weird tune for it. I'm a terrible shower singer. My neighbors must be sick of listening to me. LOL

Kissing monsters is a great title for this. I l like how u used all these dark words for this song especially since bad boys are monsters with the way they treat girls. Its a sad perspective that they still go back wanting more but never receiving. Sort of a starvation for love.

[DoNt LoSe YoUrSeLf]

I think in a way, we all starve for love. Though may not express it in the same way.

[RoxelanasDream]

Love in a way is a form of nurturing.

[DoNt LoSe YoUrSeLf]

Very well said :) Touche.

[Tepher Church]

I did enjoy this

[DoNt LoSe YoUrSeLf]

Aw, thanks :) I'm not sure if peple would like it since it's more of a depressing write, but I'm glad you enjoyed it!
