Monster
A7S Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I close my eyes and say my prayers
The candle burns from a cold breeze
The deathly smell that fills the air
The temperature drops to a chill

I want the monster
Who's come to take me
Come and face me and
You won't take me down
I want the monster
Who's come to take me
Come and face me and
You won't take me down
No you won't, yeah yeah, you won't take me down

I feel your breath on the nape of my neck
I see your shadow rise in the dark
Your frigid fingers around my wrist
Pulling me into your blackness

I want the monster
Who's come to take me
Come and face me and
You won't take me down
I want the monster
Who's come to take me
Come and face me and
You won't take me down
No, no, yeah you won't take me down

Your time has come to say goodbye
You've dodged me for way too long
A yellow streak right up your spine
You can't walk away walk away this time

Your fight is strong but I smell your fear
So stop your struggle the damage clear
An empty life for your lifeless soul
Face the monster, your deathly toll

I want the monster
Who's come to take me
Come and face me and
You won't take me down
I want the monster
Who's come to take me
Come and face me and
You won't take me down
No you won't yeah, you won't take me down

Overall Meaning

A7S's song "Monster" delves into the themes of confronting inner fears and battling against the darker sides of oneself. The lyrics open with a scene drenched in darkness and tension, setting a supernatural and otherworldly ambiance. The imagery of closing one's eyes to pray suggests an attempt to find solace amidst a terrifying situation, where the 'candle' serves as a fragile light against encroaching darkness. The mention of a "cold breeze" and "deathly smell" evokes an unsettling atmosphere that symbolizes the presence of something ominous. This illuminating moment reflects a visceral encounter with fear, preparing the listener for a confrontation with a metaphorical monster that represents the struggles and adversities in life.


The repeated invocation of wanting the monster to come and face the singer encapsulates a significant psychological perspective. It brings forth a sense of empowerment, where the artist is ready to confront whatever internal or external demons have haunted them. By asking the monster to confront them directly, there's an underlying message of defiance; rather than succumbing to fear, the desire is to engage with it head-on. The declaration that the monster "won't take me down" serves as an assertion of strength and resilience, reflecting the human spirit's ability to withstand emotional turmoil. This moment of confrontation is emblematic of the larger struggle between man and their fears, showcasing a refusal to be overcome.


As the lyrics progress, the imagery deepens with the visceral description of the monster's presence—its "breath on the nape of my neck" suggests an intimate yet threatening closeness, indicating that the fears are not merely abstract but actively pursuing the individual. The tactile sensations of "frigid fingers" and the enveloping "blackness" intensify the horror imagery and contribute to the overarching feeling of entrapment and looming dread. Yet, the active engagement with these sensations — acknowledging their presence rather than ignoring them — positions the singer as a willing participant in this confrontation. The struggle against such feelings of despair and anxiety is universal, making the lyrics resonant for many who grapple with their inner monsters.


The final verses present a climax in this internal battle, emphasizing the inevitability of confronting fear and the consequences of evading it. The phrase "Your time has come to say goodbye" hints at a reckoning, perhaps with the past or previous attempts to escape these fears. The description of the monster's fear, indicated by the "yellow streak up your spine," suggests a transformative moment where fear unravels the strength of one’s defenses when faced with the unwavering law of consequences. The concluding statements about the emptiness of avoiding struggle and decreeing, "face the monster, your deathly toll," suggest that true liberation only comes through accepting and confronting one's demons. In summation, "Monster" is an evocative anthem about resilience, courage, and the necessity of facing one's fears rather than letting them dictate the terms of one's existence.
