[OLD] Deep Underground

8. She Moved

I yawned as I opened my eyes. When did I fall asleep? I had been listening to the music on the list. Then I closed my eyes for a moment and Bam! Sleeping soundly. I guess I had been more tired than I thought.

I checked the time on my phone and sighed as I slid out of bed. It was only 7:36, but I wanted to get to the pizzeria early. I got ready, grabbed my purse, phone, and headphones and headed out to my car.

I remembered that a little while after I had been listening to the music, I had sent the songs to myself through email, and then downloaded them onto my playlist on my phone. Now I could listen to them at anytime with or without headphones.

Getting into my car I turned on the radio to hear a familiar song playing. It was 'Monster' by Imagine Dragons. I turned up the volume slightly and listened, singing along at some parts.

Ever since I could remember, everything inside of me, just wanted to fit in..

(Oh, Oh, Oh)

I was never one for pretenders, everything I tried to be, just wouldn't settle in...

(Oh, Oh, Oh)

If I told you what I was, would you turn your back on me?

And if I seemed dangerous... would you be scared?

I get the feeling just because everything I touch isn't dark enough...

If this problem lies in me...

I'M ONLY A MAN WITH A CANDLE TO GUIDE ME!

I'M TAKING A STAND TO ESCAPE WHAT'S INSIDE ME!

A MONSTER! A MONSTER!

I'VE TURNED INTO A MONSTER!

A MONSTER! A MONSTER!

AND IT KEEPS GETTING STRONGER!

Can I clear my conscience...if I'm different from the rest?

Do I have to run and hide?

(Oh, Oh, Oh)

I never said that I want this, this burden came to me...

And it's made it's home inside...

(Oh, Oh, Oh)

If I told you what I was, would you turn your back on me?

And if I seemed dangerous... would you be scared?

I get the feeling just because, everything I touch isn't dark enough...

If this problem lies in me...

I'M ONLY A MAN WITH A CANDLE TO GUIDE ME!

I'M TAKING A STAND TO ESCAPE WHAT'S INSIDE ME!

A MONSTER! A MONSTER!

I'VE TURNED INTO A MONSTER!

A MONSTER! A MONSTER!

AND IT KEEPS GETTING STRONGER!

I'M ONLY A MAN WITH A CANDLE TO GUIDE ME!

I'M TAKING A STAND TO ESCAPE WHAT'S INSIDE ME!
