monster

Shawn Mendes

You put me on a pedestal and tell me I'm the best
Rase me up into the sky until I'm short of breath
Fill me up with confidence, I say what's in my chest
Spill my words and tear me down
Until there's nothing left
Rearrange the pieces
Just to fit me with the rest, yeah

But what if I, what if I trip?
What if I, what if I fall?
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know
And what if I, what if I sin?
And what if I, what if I break? (Yeah)
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know (yeah)

I was fifteen when the world put me on a pedestal
I had big dreams of doing shows
and making memories
Made some bad moves trying to act cool
Upset by their jealously
Lifting me up (Lifting me up) , lifting me up (Yeah)
And tearing me down (Down)
Tearing me down (Down, down)
I'll take responsibility for everything I've done (Yeah)
Holding it against me like you're the holy one (Yeah)

I had a chip on my shoulder, had to let it go
'Cause unforgiveness keeps them in control
I came in with good intentions
then I let it go
And now I really wanna know

But what if I, what if I trip? (Oh)
What if I, what if I fall? (I fall)
Then am I the monster? (Am I the monster?)
Just let me know (Let me know)
And what if I, what if I sin? (Oh)
And what if I, what if I break? Yeah
Then am I the monster? (Am I the monster?)
Just let me know
Please just let me know

Please don't let me fall
Oh, please don't let me fall
