I live in my dreams Can't blame me for trying Just a simple man Swear that I'm not lying If you could find a way To take away the pain Wouldn't you chase it? Wouldn't you chase it? Worked all through the night Was filled with good intentions To build a better mind That was my invention Thought I'd found a way But now I'm losing faith Why did I chase it? (Why did I chase it?) I created a monster It's out of control, it's going to take me I created a monster I didn't know what I was making I created a monster, oh-oh (oh) I created a monster But now it's coming, coming for all of us Now it's coming, coming, oh Thought I was a god Obsessed with my creation Yeah, I felt the power Beyond imagination If you could roll the dice For a taste of paradise Wouldn't you chase it? (Wouldn't you chase it?) I created a monster It's out of control, it's going to take me I created a monster I didn't know what I was making I created a monster, oh-oh (oh) I created a monster But now it's coming, coming for all of us It's coming, coming, coming, yeah It's coming, coming, coming, for all of us It's coming, coming, coming, yeah It's coming, coming, coming, for all of us Where is my conscience? Where is my salvation? We've become the prey And the hunter has no patience There's nothing I can say To make this go away Why did I chase it? (Why did I chase it?) I created a monster It's out of control, it's going to take me I created a monster I didn't know what I was making I created a monster, oh-oh (oh) I created a monster But now it's coming, coming, for all of us It's coming, coming, coming (To take me away) It's coming, coming, coming It's coming, coming, coming I created a monster Now it's coming, coming, for all of us I created a monster
