Mary made a monster
mankind made a bomb

it’s all a fairytale gone wrong
we took the make believe
and made the horror real

history learned nothing
from all of that destruction
who forgot to read the book
that taught us our place
was not to play
the part of god

Mary made a monster
mankind made a bomb

the blood keeps spilling
as we still haven’t learned
that peace can’t be kept
by the threat and poor wisdom
of an eye for an eye
and a tooth for a tooth

who can we pray to
and beg for forgiveness
for the hell we create
when by this point
we’re past knowing better

Mary made a monster
mankind made a bomb

we’re still not the wiser
as we repeat and repent
all of our sins
as again and again
we dress for the part
of playing god

and as the book ends
may the monster forgive us
for all the things
we have done

It's in the moments
Before I fall asleep
When my body
Isn't real anymore
And my life
Never really happened
It's in those moments
I find you again
But you never stay

Every time you go out
My mind is riddled with doubt
My stomach churns
Waiting for your return

You act as if you've never left us before
And you know I have no reason to trust
Every time you walk out that door
I feel like my heart's about to bust

Everything minute seems like an hour
An eternity of fear
Because I know you have no willpower
Over a bunch of free beer

You forget I'm alive
And sometimes I don't see you for days
How will I survive?
You've  forgotten me in you're drunken daze

I have tried to make you happy
But you care nothing for mine
Let's face it you treat me ******
You're a tumor that's not benign

You take me so for granted
I know you can't love me at all
So my love, I have become quite disenchanted
There's no hope for us after all
