Meg & Dia- Monster- Lyrics

The song is based off of a short story that was written by Meg and Dia, but also based on the book East of Eden by John Steinbeck.
[MONSTER]
The couch. Always behind the couch. Under the table. The closet under the stairs. Three places to run. Three places to hide. Every time their voices would rise I would run to the closest sanctuary and thank God I was small enough to fit. Those voices that ran across each corner of the room seemed to reverberate off my very skin. Dad. He told me to call him Sir. Never Dad. Mom. She told me to call her Hannah. She was so pretty when she slept. She was so pretty when she was happy. Now, her body of twenty years was old. Tired from no sleep, breaking from fingertips pressed into her sides, and boiling with too hard of liquor for her fragile, porcelain outline.
After every uproar, every tear by her, and every empty bottle by him they would come looking. Her, happy to see him turn his malice towards me. Him, happy to turn his malice away from himself. I was the six year old pathetic coward.
Sir, I would say.
My eyes would wander to Hannah with frightened curiosity.
What had I done?
I called him sir. I called her Hannah.
They called me Henry at school.
They called me Henry at church.
They called me Monster at home.
After black, they would confine me to my room. A tiny room with one window, where their words said minutes earlier would form long sentences and wrap around in a circle above my head like those music boxes loving mothers would clip to the sides of their infants cribs. I hated my room. I hated the dark. They knew it, too, and took pleasure in locking me in. Locking me in where they could get me.
Dear Reader: Please note, if you ever were a six year old child, remember what it was like to lay in bed and imagine that loud heartbeat pulsing thick from underneath your mattress. Remember that hand that hovered over your face once you closed your eyes. Remember that loud breathing that resided around your open window. The creatures. That white little girl that crawled towards you in the night, hair hanging around the neck, fingers outstretched. To a child it is horrid. To an adult, it is a memory that most barely ever remember.
Twenty years later.
I didn't understand love. I didn't understand human connection. I only understood the weather: constantly changing. I understood change. I didn't understand safety, or any emotion, be it love, or hate, that could be unconditional.
I was at my second year of college. I was striving to be a writer. I didn't trust the crowds. I would go to my apartment, sit at my small desk I had gotten at a garage sale, and stay there for hours with my books, my papers, and a bottle of brandy. Then the day would end, and I'd get ready for the next.
I slept with the lights on.
Always.
I didn't want many things, but every once in a while, I hate to admit, I would want to feel that popular emotion I had read about in so many books: love. I was scared to administer it myself. I was scared to feel for another person.
So things happened.
On the walk to my apartment I saw a girl in a red sweater. I pardoned her and asked her if she knew where Rebecca street was. She looked at me in a funny way, paused, and turned her back to me. My hands ran to her shoulders, my lips to her neck. Hard fingers, hard hands. Her soft hair, thin ankles.
I ran off, leaving the crème skinned girl crying at her violette bruises left in patches under her sweater and skirt.
I had been born of glass but now I only felt apathy. No regrets, but still, that hard human pain that is there when you know you have done a terrible trespass.
I went back to my apartment. I turned all the lights on and opened the window. The night was calm and beautiful. The wind brought in glow flies by the dozen. They did not bother me like they did to most locals here. They brought light and company and I loved them with all my heart. I broke the lamps and poured the liquid into the bath tub. Small shards of porcelain glass managed to mix in with the water as well, that was now pouring from the faucet. I added the remaining kerosene I kept under my sink and by my desk which I had used as a denaturant for my alcohol.
Maybe it would have the same effect on me.
I DO NOT OWN THIS SONG OR THE STORY THAT GOES WITH IT

[@destinykitsune5098]

Here's the meaning for y'all; it's not just rape but also other messed up stuff: "This song is about a boy named Henry, who is abused by his parents. His mom, Hannah, had him at like 14 years old and didn't love him. The dad would abuse Hannah and Henry; Hannah would be happy anytime the father would abuse the son because it gave her a break. They'd call him "monster" all the time but only at home, never in public and lock him into a tiny room in the dark which only has one window. Henry is 6 years old and he is terrified of the dark: he sees creatures looking through the only window in the room and he's scared. Soon, he gets used to it and doesn't feel anything: not fear, not love, not even pain because his parent's words hurt him enough. So when he grows up, he isolates himself, because he has always been like that and reads a ton of books: they all seem to include "love" but Henry doesn't know anything about that because his parents not only didn't love him but also each other and all he ever saw was abuse. One day, he sees a beautiful girl and he thinks he loves her, so he takes her somewhere, ties her up around her wrists, ankles and abuses and rapes her because that's what he thinks love is like. He leaves her crying and goes home. He realizes that she obviously did not enjoy that at all and realizes that he truly is a monster just like his parents. So he burns up the bathtub with kerosene to kill himself and "their words tattooed into his veins" means that what his parents repeatedly called him (monster) is true because he has become a monster."

Okay if you search up the meaning behind this song, omg, it’s so deep. But thank god it’s only based off a book. The meaning behind the song is about a boy who was never loved. He never knew what love was. Till he meets a girl . From the story, she falls in love with him, later on he finds out that he was hurting her. So, he committed suicide by filling a bath with kerosene and lighting it on fire, which also saying the the lyrics:”Bathtub full of glow flies, Bathe in kerosene.” *STOP COMMENTING ON THIS SHIT ITS OLD*

[@tainamichelle2683]

That's interesting and actually his mother is Hannah

[@Apex-ly7bd]

Its about a boy, whose name was henry. who was neglected as a child. Born from hannah, hence hannahs regrets, implying having a kid was her "regret". He was never shown love as a child so he doesnt know how to show love to others. he found a girl who he liked but didnt know how to show he loved her. He ended up locking her up somewhere and raping her. "Then he STOLE her" Which means he stole her virginity. "Then he slowley saw her nightmares were his dreams" it was her nightmare. but to him it was a fantasy. He ended up figuring out that what he did was NOT love and he ended up killing himself by setting himself on fire in a bathtub full of kerosene

And never knew love, one day he saw a beautiful girl, and took her to his house. Caged, bruised (abused her, raped her) and his nightmares of being a monster was true. So he sat in a bath tub, filled a water and lit it.

So when he goes off to college, he didn’t really knew anything about bondage and stuff. So the first time a girl interacts with him, he abuses her and I think rapes her. He realizes what he has done and commits suicide in the bathtub.

Monster (neglected child turned bad) How should I feel (?) Creatures lie here (?) Looking through the window (?) Can someone explain the meaning to the other ones? What creatures is he referring to and why are them looking through the window? Or am I getting it wrong? Why does he ask how he should feel? This is the part that intrigues me the most since nobody has explained it to me yet and I want to know the meaning of this iconic part.

for all the people who are confused to what this song is about : it's about a boy named Henry, and his parents didn't care about him and neglected him. when he grew up he didn't know how to love or show emotions. he was never shown empathy. when henry grew up he saw a girl he liked but he didn't know how to talk to her. she tried to get away from him but then he raped the girl then killed himself lol

[@kynnet51]

My fav line '' Monster, how should i feel? '' Cause deep inside we are all monsters. I feel like she is asking deep inside her...

[@pikapunchgamer9532]

Creepy Mouse Oh I interpret this line differently. The monsters are all the bullies, haters, scammers, criminals and the society. Also the windows are their eyes and behind those eyes most people judge and don't care who you really are. True everybody has a good & bad side but everyday it is our decision which side we want to live out. You should read the story which the song is based. In the story the protagonist (Henry) calls his own parents monsters because they mistreated him when he was a child so the parents were bullies/ shitty people.

[@xUsagiEffect]

Sam L. Well. I was on their message board and Meg & Dia wrote a blog on what this song means. It's actually based off of a story they wrote. It may be kind of long...but, here we go: MONSTER SIDENOTES Hello. Here are the lyrics to Monster written by a collaboration of Meg and I. Many of our songs that we write, and many of the ones that will be on the new record are about stories. Stories about friends, about strangers, about history, and about characters in some of our most favorite books. Posted below are the actual lyrics to "Monster," as well as the short story I wrote next to those lines along time ago. [lyrics.] **************************************** Sidenotes and afternotes for the more curious and unsatisfied....by Dia. ********* The couch. Always behind the couch. Under the table. The closet under the stairs. Three places to run. Three places to hide. Every time their voices would rise I would run to the closest sanctuary and thank God I was small enough to fit. Those voices that ran across each corner of the room seemed to reverberate off my very skin. Dad. He told me to call him Sir. Never Dad. Mom. She told me to call her Hannah. She was so pretty when she slept. She was so pretty when she was happy. Now, her body of twenty years was old. Tired from no sleep, breaking from fingertips pressed into her sides, and boiling with too hard of liquor for her fragile, porcelain outline. After every uproar, every tear by her, and every empty bottle by himthey would come looking. Her, happy to see him turn his malice towards me. Him, happy to turn his malice away from himself. I was the six year old pathetic coward. Sir, I would say. My eyes would wander to Hannah with frightened curiosity. What had I done? I called him sir. I called her Hannah. They called me Henry at school. They called me Henry at church. They called me Monster at home. After black, they would confine me to my room. A tiny room with one window, where their words said minutes earlier would form long sentences and wrap around in a circle above my head like those music boxes loving mothers would clip to the sides of their infants cribs. I hated my room. I hated the dark. They knew it, too, and took pleasure in locking me in. Locking me in where they could get me. Dear Reader: Please note, if you ever were a six year old child, remember what it was like to lay in bed and imagine that loud heartbeat pulsing thick from underneath your mattress. Remember that hand that hovered over your face once you closed your eyes. Remember that loud breathing that resided around your open window. The creatures. That white little girl that crawled towards you in the night, hair hanging around the neck, fingers outstretched To a child it is horrid. To an adult, it is a memory that most barely ever remember. Twenty years later. I didnt understand love. I didnt understand human connection. I only understood the weather: constantly changing. I understood change. I didnt understand safety, or any emotion, be it love, or hate, that could be unconditional. I was at my second year of college. I was striving to be a writer. I didnt trust the crowds. I would go to my apartment, sit at my small desk I had gotten at a garage sale, and stay there for hours with my books, my papers, and a bottle of brandy. Then the day would end, and Id get ready for the next. I slept with the lights on. Always. I didnt want many things, but every once in a while, I hate to admit, I would want to feel that popular emotion I had read about in so many books: love. I was scared to administer it myself. I was scared to feel for another person. So things happened. On the walk to my apartment I saw a girl in a red sweater. I pardoned her and asked her if she knew were Rebecca street was. She looked at me in a funny way, paused, and turned her back to me. My hands ran to her shoulders, my lips to her neck. Hard fingers, hard hands.her soft hair, thin ankles. I ran off, leaving the crème skinned girl crying at her violette bruises left in patches under her sweater and skirt. I had been born of glass but now I only felt apathy. No regrets, but still, that hard human pain that is there when you know you have done a terrible trespass. I went back to my apartment. I turned all the lights on and opened the window. The night was calm and beautiful. The wind brought in glow flies by the dozen. They did not bother me like they did to most locals here. They brought light and company and I loved them with all my heart. I broke the lamps and poured the liquid into the bath tub. Small shards of porcelain glass managed to mix in with the water as well, that was now pouring from the faucet. I added the remaining kerosene I kept under my sink and by my desk which I had used as a denaturant for my alcohol. Maybe it would have the same effect on me.. this is i found lying around on the internet hope it helps, not sure how true this is though fyi i copied and pasted everything above
