Get That Monster Out Of Here - Madder Mortem

So now the bringer of unease has reappeared

He has dared to show his face within our walls

His visage hidden in the mouldy earth and his fingers in the waters I had calmed

His intrusion is a presence in the air and the fire is a nuisance to our hearts

and he’s showing off the secret little thoughts we kept apart

And then the trap will spring

Nip our heels and make us bleed

Just as we found our ease pops a monster out

Behold the travesty!

Get that monster out of here!

He is steadily uprooting all our plans, letting loose the sordid demons we had

bound

Turning all our dainty gestures upside down and misplacing all the footholds we

had found

Every corner holds a shadow to expose, every closet has a skeleton to show,

and he’s proudly re-displaying all we worked so hard not to know

And then the trap will spring

Just around our time of need

I fear the change he brings

Get that monster out of here

Behold the travesty!

Get that monster out of here!

I will mask the wounds I could not heal while you set your resolve

We’ll be laughing at some joke we played while our options dissolve

It is only fate, my love

Who could wear it down?

Behold the travesty!

Get that monster out of here!
