Monster in Me
Little Mix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Beautiful creatures, you and me
Every time that we touch it's dangerous
This spark is more than chemistry
Beautiful liars, drowning deep
Every night we fight and it's hot like hell
But it feels like heaven between the sheets

Every time we let go
I scream and I call for more

Touch me
Why don't we kill each other slowly?
What can I say, baby, what can I do?
The monster in me loves the monster in you
Hold me
Squeeze a little tighter 'til we can't breathe
What can I say, baby, what can I do?
The monster in me loves the monster in you
Monster in me, mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm, ayy, ayy
Loves the monster in you, mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm, ayy, ayy

Beautiful killer, cut me deep
Just a single kiss and I'm under your spell
Will you go in like I've never seen
Beautiful fire, love the heat, mm
Every night we fight and it's hot like hell
But I love the way that you make me scream

And every time I let go
I cry and I beg for more -ore

Touch me
Why don't we kill each other slowly?
What can I say, baby, what can I do?
The monster in me loves the monster in you
Hold me
Squeeze a little tighter 'til we can't breathe (can't breathe, baby)
What can I say, baby, what can I do?
The monster in me loves the monster in you
Monster in me, mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm, ayy, ayy
Loves the monster in you, mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm, ayy, ayy (ah, yeah)

Every moment we spend
Turning from friends to enemies
And fighting to hold on to each other
Every second we fall to fire below
It's so beautiful
The hell that we both made for each other
But it's all love and war
Louder we roar, crying for more
I know it's so wrong, but baby just

Touch me
Why don't we kill each other slowly?
What can I say, baby, what can I do? (Oh)
The monster in me loves the monster in you (babe)
Hold me
Squeeze a little tighter 'til we can't breathe (can't breathe, ooh)
What can I say, baby, what can I do? (Baby)
The monster in me loves the monster in you
The monster in me, yeah
(Wanting me, haunting you)
(Haunting me, haunting you, ooh) Oh
(Wanting me, haunting you) Oh
(Wanting me, haunting you, ooh)

Wanting me, haunting you
Haunting me, haunting you, ooh




Wanting me, haunting you
Haunting me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Little Mix's "Monster In Me" talks about a tumultuous, borderline toxic relationship between two people who seem to accept the fiery and intense atmosphere they create. The song's title "Monster In Me" refers to the darker side of the person singing, which is brought out by the person they're attracted to despite the relationship's apparent disasters. The phrase "Every time that we touch, it's dangerous" suggests that the connection between the two is intense, and there is an element of risk in every touch.


However, the two individuals still seem drawn to each other, and they are aware of the flaws in their relationship but accept it because it feels like heaven between the sheets. The chorus of the song speaks of a desire to be close to their partner, even if it hurts them. The lyrics "Squeeze a little tighter till we can't breathe," reinforce the idea that the relationship is intense and that they would rather suffocate than be apart. The song's bridge talks about how their love is a beautiful disaster, and even if they fight, they would still go back to each other.


In summary, "Monster In Me" is a song about a relationship that is both beautiful and toxic. Two individuals are drawn to each other despite their flaws, and they don't want to let go of the strong connection they share. It highlights how, in love, people can't help but be drawn to their partner, regardless of the toll it takes on them.
