Allen from Bermenton, WaWhat they say is soooooooooo true that it's hard to believe that they said it and not me.Naomi from Belfast, United KingdomTo me this song is about a person struggling with some aspect of themselves that they feel makes them a monster.Jack from Nashville, TnI can't wait for the day where people stop forcing their religion down my throat.See? the message is being passed quietly. guess i shouldnt tell you that Creed is a contemporary christian group. I knew they were because Carman used Skillet's song best kept secret in his movie. You dont like it LEAVE THE PAGE! dollars to donuts you would have been too dense to know this band is contemporary christian if the article above hadnt SAID it. Shanon from Wichita, Ksoh my god Jack shut up!.Juliet from Polokwane, South AfricaWell said Shannon! There are so many christian rock groups out there which so little know of!! Gives me great pleasure to know that people are listening to christian groups and don't even know about it!! Fact: God's annointing is all over these groups and their music and somehow, someway He wil get through to you!! Skillet are one of those bands.their songs are amazingly powerful.especially Monster!! I'm in a daily battle with sin, it's like a monster, just lurking behind every corner.waiting to attack!! Sin creates a monster in you and - if not repent - could kill you!!.I love the heaviness and all but the meaning has touched me true sin is a sinister beast a monster and depending on who the person is it varies in strength mine is strong enough to make me fear for my life the woman I love whom left me and my family the darkness inside me continues to grow and fester that sing is true to the fat everyone has something that makes them feel like a 'monster' a beast that's is angry and wants out. Zack from Noblesville, InI never thought about the song like that.Michael from San Antoio, TogoI like their song monster.Especially with the great meanings they have behind each song.

I myself don't follow the religion, but I don't allow that fact to stop me from listening to them. Skillet rocks, even if they are a Christian band.

Kate from Milton, IaI absolutely love this song.

It all has a different message for everybody.

Austin from Yankton, SdI am atheist but that doesn't stop me from listening to them.

Whether that is religious or not, to each his own. You could very easily say this song is, as mentioned, about hiding your true self from public. The lyrics never directly imply anything to do with religion. It's up to yourself to decide what it means.

Drew from Mn UsaAlthough this song was meant to be religious.

Had no idea it was as big of a hit as it really is.

Tacocat_king from Caton, New YorkI freaking love this song.

It started as a snake & grew into a dragon, i’ve asked God to slay it.

Deliverance Kid from TxThe song made me manifest & now i’m going to get deliverance.

Writer/s: Gavin Brown, John Landrum Cooper I've gotta lose control, here's something radical Maybe it's inside of me, stop this monster No one can hear me scream, maybe it's just a dream There's no escape for me, it wants my soul, it wants my heart

It's hiding in the dark, it's teeth are razor sharp 'Cause if I let him out he'll tear me up, break me down My secret side I keep hid under lock and key I hate what I've become, the nightmare's just begun I must confess that I feel like a monster I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin Why won't somebody come and save me from this, make it end? Hiding under the bed, in my body, in my head It's scratching on the walls, in the closet, in the halls So stay away from me The beast is ugly, I feel the rage and I just can't hold it It's scratchin on the walls, In the closet in the halls It comes awake and I can't control it Hidin under the bed, In my body in my head Why won't somebody come and save me from this-make it end CHORUS: I feel it deep within, It's just beneath the skin, I must confess that I feel like a monster! I hate what I've become, The nightmare's just begun, I must confess that I feel like a monster! I, I feel like a monster! I, I feel like a monster! My secret side I keep Hid under lock and key I keep it caged but I can't control it- Cause if I let him out, He'll tear me up-break me down.The secret side of me, I never let you see The secret side of me I never let you see I keep it caged but I can't control it.
