21st Century Monster Songtext
von Aviators

I am
The other side of the mirror
The glasses seeing you clearer
One last time

Last stand
Where the years stood still in the basement
When heaven can′t build a replacement
For what's mine

Control
Of horrors and knowledge of old
A tethering power to hold

I sold my soul for you
Stole for you
Been my own enemy
Just to light your eyes


I am the animal that
Feeds for you
Needs for you
Amalgamation of
The healer that I was
And everything I am

I am
The hopeless romantic that′s lost her
A new 21st century monster
Growing near

Don't run
I promise it's not what it looks like
I′m battered from winning the last fight
Calm your fear

So cold
A cosmos of magic untold
With nothing but ashes to hold

Would you believe
I sold my soul for you
Stole for you
Been my own enemy
Just to light your eyes


I am the animal that
Feeds for you
Needs for you
Amalgamation of
The healer that I was
And everything I am

My composure in stitches
A king among witches
Holding only an audience with bones
I sucked in the light
And won every fight
But we fade in this black hole alone

To someone beyond this
I reach out for solace
I′ll speak through fabric of space
Our hope of escaping
I'm screaming and scraping
With tears on this old monster′s face

I sold my soul for you
Stole for you
Been my own enemy
Just to light your eyes

I am the animal that
Feeds for you
Needs for you
Amalgamation of
The healer that I was
And everything I am
