Monster

Cm How has everything been turned against us? Bb How did suffering become so endless? Ab G4 How am I to reunite with my estranged? G Do I need to change? Cm I'm surrounded by the souls of those I've lost Bb I'm the only one whose line I haven't crossed Ab G4 What if the greatest threat we'll find across the sea G Is me? Ab What if I'm the monster? Db7M What if I'm in the wrong? Bb Eb7M What if I'm the problem that's been hiding all along? Gm Ab What if I'm the one who killed you Db7M Every time I caved to guilt? Bb What if I've been far too kind to foes Eb7M But a monster to ourselves? Gm What if I'm the monster Ab Is the Cyclops struck with guilt when he kills? Db7M Is he up in the middle of the night? Bb Or does he end my men to avenge his friend Eb7M Gm And then sleep knowing he has done him right? Ab Db7M When the witch turns men to pigs to protect her nymphs Is she going insane? Bb Or did she learn to be colder when she got older Eb7M Gm And now she saves them the pain? Ab When a God comes down and makes a fleet drown Db7M Is he scared that he's doing something wrong? Bb Or does he keep us in check so we must respect him Eb7M Gm And now no one dares to piss him off? Ab Db7M Does a soldier use a wooden horse to kill sleeping trojans cause he is vile? Bb Or does he throw away his remorse and save more lives with guile Ab G7 If I became the monster, and threw that guilt away Cm Would that make us stronger? Bb Would it keep our foes at bay? Ab G7 If I became the monster to everyone but us Cm And made sure we got home again Bb Who would care if we're unjust? Ab If I became the Monster G G7 Cm Oh, ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves Bb And deep down I know this well Ab I lost my best friend I lost my mentor, my mom G Five hundred men gone, this can't go on Cm Bb I must get to see Penelope and Telemachus G Cm So if we must sail through dangerous oceans and beaches Bb I'll go where Poseidon won't reach us Ab And if I gotta drop another infant from a wall G In an instant so we all don't die Ab Then I'll become the Monster G7 I will deal the blow Cm And I'll become the Monster Bb Like none they've ever known Ab So what if I'm the Monster G7 Lurking deep below? Cm I must become the Monster Bb And then we'll make it home Soldiers Ab Monster Odysseus G7 Penelope Soldiers Cm Monster Odysseus Bb4 Telemachus Soldiers Ab Monster Odysseus G Cm Oh, ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves Bb Cm I'll become the monster
