It wasn’t beauty, it wasn’t beast,
It was something more, to say the least.
A contradiction, a wicked delight,
Monsters inside are dancing tonight.

Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Beneath trees, where the shadows play,
A creature waits at the edge of day.
I saw it standing in the pale moonlight,
Shadowed face, yet its eyes burned bright.
A silhouette of fear, yet a haunting charm,
Calling me closer, disarming alarm.
A face of nightmares, a dancer’s poise,
A hush that screams above all noise.
(Pre-Chorus)
It wasn’t beauty, it wasn’t beast,
It was something more, to say the least.
A contradiction, a wicked delight,
Monsters inside are dancing tonight.
(Chorus)
Beautiful monsters consume my soul.
Haunted and whole, losing control.
Monsters I chase, reflections of me.
Haunting my heart, they won’t let me be.
The monster within is the truest me.
Beautiful monsters set me free.
(Verse 2)
It moved with rhythm, like a ghostly tide,
Fear was my anchor, but excited inside.
Its steps sang secrets of worlds untold,
Stories of shadows and hearts grown bold.
(Pre-Chorus)
It wasn’t human, it wasn’t divine,
But in its horror, I saw design.
(Chorus Repeat)
(Verse 3)
I stepped through the veil where the wild things creep,
Where nightmares are born, where secrets sleep.
It stood like a statue carved by despair,
Yet moved like the wind, silent and rare.
Elegance of shadows, a ghostly delight,
Grace in the darkness, a thief in the night.
It breaks all I know, it bends all my rules,
Beautiful monsters, haunting and cruel.
(Pre-Chorus)
It’s not the horror that makes me stay,
It’s the beauty found in disarray.
(Chorus Repeat)
(Verse 4)
A symphony played by the night’s cold breath,
A haunting grace that could dance with death.
It wasn’t cruel, it wasn’t kind,
It walked the line of heart and mind.
Haunting grace, it steals my soul,
Fills the cracks to make me whole.
A paradox in the pale moonlight,
Beautiful monsters own the night.
(Pre-Chorus)
The further I fall, the clearer I see,
The monsters out there are echoes of me.
(Chorus Repeat)
(Verse 5)
It wasn’t out there, it was always inside,
A shadow I’ve run from, a truth I denied.
Its claws were my fears, its voice my regret,
A creature I’d buried, one I won’t forget.
The creature within, it’s part of me,
Beautiful, terrifying, wild and free.
No need to fight, no need to flee,
The monster within is my destiny.
(Pre-chorus)
I peered into the abyss tonight,
Expecting a void, but found the light.
A figure emerged, both alien and true,
Its flaws like a mirror reflecting you.
(Chorus Repeat)
(Bridge)
They whisper truths in the dead of night,
That beauty’s born from the strangest sight.
What we run from, what we embrace,
Is just a reflection of our hidden face.
In every scar, in every fear,
Lies beauty strange, yet crystal clear.
(Outro)
Beautiful monsters, I’m one of you,
A mix of shadows and light shining through.
If monsters are mirrors, then I’m afraid,
The beautiful ones are the ones we’ve made.
Terrifying beauty, a paradox call,
We’re all beautiful monsters after all.
When I embrace it, I become whole,
A beautiful monster with a boundless soul.
