Sick Puppies - Monsters

Sick Puppies song Monsters from their Tri-Polar Deluxe album.
Written by Shimon Moore, Emma Anzai and B. Cresswell
Lyrics:
Somewhere inside this closet your whole life exists
An evil little secret that keeps you so nervous
You're boarding up your windows in fetal on the floor
But what you're keeping out is on the wrong side of the door
I know the reason you're running scared
I met the monster inside your head
You'll never know the feeling of being alive
It's not enough
It never stops coming
It's not enough
So take a breath say goodbye
Your skin is crawling on you there's shadows on the ground
And now the room is spinning oh god what was that sound
The fear is paralyzing trapped here inside yourself
Your will to live is dying, is dying, you're dying
I know the reason you're running scared
I met the monster inside your head
You'll never know the feeling of being yourself
It's not enough
It never stops coming
It's not enough
So take a breath say goodbye
...Say goodbye
You're dying now
You're dying now
I know the reason you're running scared
I met the monster inside your head
You'll never know the feeling of being alive
It's not enough
It never stops coming
It's not enough
So take a breath say goodbye

Bro, HOW is this not on Spotify?

[@LockpinLuponny]

REAL

[@caai3148]

Bro it’s not even on Apple Music and I tried to play this on there looked that shit up and it wasn’t on there I was like dawg wtfffff so I came to YT where I knew it was and was satisfied

[@whosyaghaddy5382]

@@caai3148annoying as fuck cause i gotta remember the song outta the blue and come to youtube to hear it

[@fishflake]

"Howard, Howard, crying in the shower" makes a lot of sense, actually, when you listen to the lyrics of Howard's Tale...

[@Vampirate_]

I heard “running, running, in circles”

[@pwan3971]

I understood this reference after years thanks man

[@totallykyle111]

This is seriously one real hidden gem for people who didn't get the deluxe version, it's my favourite SP song

Sick Puppies - Monsters (2009) > Three Days Grace - It's All Over (2006) > System OF A Down - Mr Jack (2002)

[@mrh0ck3y]

Huh?

[@imperfecthabit]

@@mrh0ck3y after listening to the other two songs, it seems all three share similar guitar riffs/tones

[@TheSquareRoundTable]

My thoughts exactly. Just proves how bad ass a riff can be

[@lix2466]

Yeah those riffs sound similarXd😂😂❤ it was sick xD

[@funkyfreak97]

The riff before they even say Howard's name, to me, just screams that it's a continuation of Howard's Tale. They're structurally so similar, but this riff sounds so much darker, it feels like I'm actually there, in the plagued mind of Howard, as he tries to find his closure as to why he was horribly abused his entire childhood. Gives me chills and tugs at the heart strings.

[@AdamSinghPannu]

The riff is sooooooo similar to "It's All Over" by Three Days Grace but changes quickly at the end! lol!

[@akshaychougaonkar]

AdamSinghPannu Haha! True that.

[@blackduke3471]

yes you are alright

[@ttkdovieski9864]

the bass too

[@lix2466]

Yeah that was I thought xD I love that riff

[@cherrypop011094]

its not nothing, you obvs didnt have it loud enough. Howard, Howard, crying in the shower Howard, Howard, been in there for hours it's a sequel to Howard's Tale

[@mickmousebuildahouse]

Definitely one of the best bands in existence...

[@dakotamason6717]

Kitty Murder agreed their sooo good

[@TheWillOfFenris]

Been one of my favs for years after hearing a nightcored version. Listening to vanilla version I so crave a second guitar.

[@milkfic7319]

0:13 "Howard, Howard, crying in the shower." Obviously this is a follow up song for Howard's Tale. Did Howard commit suicide?

[@Abscission]

Find out next time on AMC's "The Walking Dead"

[@brokenace4133]

+Levail Does TWD actually have anything to do with the song Howard's tale?

[@rowanhays6830]

+Milk Fic From what I can tell no, he didn't. What I get from it is that because of the sexual abuse he suffered as a child mentally scarring him, he turned out the same and he both hates and scares himself. It links in with lyrics from Howard's Tale, "The first time, it didn't feel right; it'll be the last time he tries."Yes, I have too much time on my hands. x'D

[@gledisgontier3056]

I thought this is its all over by three days grace!

[@seancairns9749]

thought the same thing! i was like huh? wow... that riff is close.

[@KK25Gaming]

How is this not on Spotify :/

[@bryanlenihan5012]

It's on the deluxe version of the album

[@TheAndromeda1111]

This is Sick Puppies so stop fighting over BB and 3DG. This song is awesome. Period.

[@TheChaoticBeats]

So pretty sure this is now my official zombie apocolypse theme song...

[@Yaoi96]

Why is this not on Spotify?

[@bryanlenihan5012]

It's on the deluxe version of the album

[@TheBrainVomit]

I think it's: Howard, Howard, crying in the shower Howard, Howard, been in there for hours :)

[@7855slipknot]

@maximumdrumz1 Damn straight Emma Anzai is probably the most under rated bassist out there .... the only reason people don't notice how bad ass she is, is due to the fact that people are too busy paying attention to her looks

[@bryanlenihan5012]

She's def one of the most underrated but impo the most underrated bassist is Ryan Martine of Mudvayne

[@amoonlessnight1]

Wicked song! It sounds a lot like "It's All Over" by Three Days Grace; the guitars/bass at the start, the verses. Not a big deal though, because Sick Puppies are awesome.

[@rasmusdrongesen2721]

They did copy three days grace "It´s All Over" at 0:40 heres a link for Three days Grace - Its All Over kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4SzgqCAp5iUmdE 0:30 the same music is playing there. Three days grace "It´s All Over" is just 5 months older then this song. Three days Grace - Its All Over 26/12/2010 Sick Puppies - Monsters 25/05/2011

[@grimreaps6512]

I thought the same thing

I LOVE SICK PUPPIES okay this song rocks it tells so much!!! WHY DIDN'T THIS GET ON A ALBUM????!!!! oh well IT STILL ROCKS KEEP POSTEN THE VIEDOS only thing keeps me sane is sick puppies!

Am i the only one who got chilles in the begging?

[@beckybabee3155]

yep

[@deathbox-tv9vr]

There best song ever

[@131Skinwalker]

I love this song I also got to use it in English class as an example of allusion, the beginning is what I used haha!

[@TwiztidSinX]

Wow kids its called Sampling artists do it all the time its just as common as a cover but anyone saying it doesnt sound similar is flat out tone def its the exact same bass riff and 3DG " It's All Over" they sampled the song because obviously they liked the sound thats all there is to it

[@MrNicefff]

finally fount it :) god bless the lord

[@Sc0rpioX666]

only difference is sick puppies plays it so much better

[@marthkid1]

I think this is a follow-up from Howard's Tale in Dressed Up as Life its pretty obvious at the beginning theres a voice saying Howard several times that with the similar rift of "It's all over" I think this is definitely intentional even though one X was released before Both albums its a real possibility that TDG could have inspired these songs they've toured together several times and seem to be on good terms. This may be a bit of a reach still but its totally possible

[@Super_Scooter_Happy]

This is fire 😭🔥💚

[@CaityCat.24]

Finally!!! Someone uploaded this song!!!!

awesome song thanks a lot for uploading dude!!! love it!!

Fuck yes! Emma's ripping up the bass!!!

[@CerberusT93]

@Cobyt501st no, this is from Tri-Polar deluxe edition which was released may of this year (this song isn't found in the standard Tri-polar). Its all over came from One-X, which was released june 2006

[@MrTheLisander]

i think it's a great theme song for halloween

[@JSwaggaUnplugged]

@R6cknRoLL If you go on their merch website, they have Tri-Polar Deluxe available to buy. Monsters is on that album. xD I'm not sure where'd you get it solo, however.

Time Traveler spotted

[@InnocentSweetie123]

“Howard, Howard, crying in the shower…” “Howard, Howard, been in there for hours…” Is this connected to the track ‘Howard’s Tale’?!

[@TheBitcheyEmo]

I dont blame Emma for not wanting to be pulled into the crowd, I wouldn't want to be pulled in either lol

[@NecroBurt]

Howard, Howard, crying in the shower... Howard, Howard, been in there for hours...

[@GaaraOfTheFunkXD]

First time hearing this song. HOW, WHY ONLY NOW?

[@Dradon1998]

@maximumdrumz1 I hate how most songs are just "Hey, throw me a beat down. Now do that for the whole song." This song is nothing like that. I love Emmas' bass lines. I agree that nobody ever recognizes talent.

[@maximumdrumz1]

@MrGameboyman ok dude "that chick" is emma and she is an amazing bass player.. i get so sick of all the comments just being like omg shes so hot! shes also extremely talented but no one seems to care about that

[@SquirtCobain3]

not gonna lie that was pretty creepy

[@ColorfulDetonation]

loveeee this song

[@WarwickWerewolf]

@rfarekas I wouldn't be surprised if their riff in the song "Monsters" sounds like "It's All Over" by Three Days Grace. Because the chorus to "Maybe" is exactly the same as "Whatever It takes" by Lifehouse. In "Nothing Really Matters" it sounds like "Papercut" by Linkin Park. And in the chorus to their song "Shards" it tends to sound like the bridge to "All the Same" They're even stealing from themselves, I LOVE them but, damn, there matterial tends to copy those of others'

[@WarwickWerewolf]

@TheDarkRane I'm not saying that the meanings are the same, and I'm not saying they don't make their riffs better, I'm also not saying they do. I'm simply stating that their matterial sounds the same as others'. They're my favorite band, I wouldn't put them down, but the whole point of being an artist is to express your feelings and make your own music (and sometimes even covers) it's not to take someone else's stuff and form it into whatever you want.

[@vivianamendez6979]

Awesome song bro

[@PURPLEISAMAZING1996]

good point

"I am the saint who will extinguish every dark soul who scarred this earth, prepare to die sinner!" - Nigel 10:45 -repetance

[@lloydteddy]

@Foxireas8 There are different songs on the UK and US versions of Tripolar, UK version came later and for some reason they decided to replace some of the songs with newer songs on the UK version

[@TheDrCN]

@PURPLEISAMAZING1996 I think it's the voices in his head taunting him (since the song is about the monsters inside his head).

[@VideoGirl221]

Im gettin A T-shirt with their logo ! ;D

[@katanderson23]

Yay yay yay! I love this song:))

[@TheMengan]

COOL

[@JinnDaDragon]

lol wen i listen to this all i think of is evil ryu n devil jin

[@CoReYcRaCkDoWn]

@rfarekas If you play guitar, or have ANY attention to detail, it is different. Different tuning, and it has an extra part in the middle. The first two measures of it, sound the same.

[@jscreationz]

@XXspazzycassieXX thanks i just spent the last 20mins trying to figure which song had that same beat, had it narrowed between 3dg, breaking benjamin or another sp song.

[@aniramy_]

sounds like It's All Over by 3DG that sounds like Mr. Jack by SOAD!

[@1894felipe]

Sounds exactly like three days grace- it´s all over ...

[@Vhosis333]

This song seems to be about someone confronting another about a self destructive secret that the other has. Just my interpretation though.

[@Schuyler2614]

@MrWutsurFace Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I love Sick Puppies, but some of their songs sound almost exactly like other band's songs. The chorus for "Maybe" sounds almost the same as the chorus for "Whatever it Takes" by Lifehouse. And then this one. Who knows, maybe it's just a coincidence, but "It's All Over" and Whatever it Takes" were both released much earlier than this and "Maybe".

[@CaityCat.24]

@schmt92 Just buy the CD. Shim actually said the band doesn't like it when there fans get there songs for free on the internet.

[@trickzortreatz4506]

sweet

[@Vhosis333]

@nightmareutopia same I thought it was "coward, coward, hiding in the shadows"

[@Vokoca]

How come I've never heard this before? O:

[@jacquelined.1885]

that's not my music taste but it sounds good^^ ♥

[@dynamite978]

@sunny2007111 when the guitar begins it sounds exactly like its all over

[@xreaperswithehd448]

Ich liebe es. Es könnte gerne auch etwas schneller sein aber auch so ziemlich geil.

[@CerberusT93]

@rfarekas woah o.O, even the singing follows a similar pattern

[@Silent0Sacrifice]

@ZtealthpilotD Thank Goodness. I thought I was the only one hearing that, lol.

[@whateversam96]

@rfarekas unfortunately, i think you're right. they sound pretty much identical until the very end of it... its sad and i love this band but they should probably change how the song sounds...

[@nightmareutopia]

@SimiMckern LOL. I didn't hear until the "Howard" part until you said it, I always thought they were saying "hiding in the shadows"... xD

[@tam.s.2337]

Sorry you remind me of someone that I was trying to get over...

[@WarwickWerewolf]

@TwiztidSinX That's besides the point. Sampling is just as bad as stealing if they didn't ask the artist for permission. Could still be punishable under the law

[@DutchyBoii]

@ShadoWolf0913 And Breaking Ben's ''Without You'' was released on the same date as 3DG's ''Without You'' Breaking Ben's ''Home'' was released in 2002 on thier album ''Saturate'' When 3DG's ''Home'' was released in 2004.

[@TheDrCN]

@131Skinwalker In my last 3 major, quarterly essays for Theory of Knowledge class have all referenced whatever song I happened to be listening to while I was writing it.

I feel like Sick Puppies steals bands idea's a lot.. lol But I still love Sick Puppies. they're awesome.

[@sunny2007111]

@dynamite978 which one? I don't hear it... but I could see where'd you get it... a lot of songs sound a like... but which song?

[@QUIROPTEROHOLLOW]

@DeSkyWolfX Sounds like Drown or Take Me Under...or maybe Burn, O don't know, it really sounds like 3dG

[@SickBenni]

this song is so sick :) licke it! It's great!

[@bonelessskeleton2548]

Why, oh, why isnt this on Spotify

[@Raging_Phoenyx]

@HypoKiki i though the same thing but now i'm happy i've got the album

[@NecroBurt]

I concur

[@jillian4778]

@SpamsterChannel They have plenty of talent. Have you ever heard their earlier stuff? Look up Rock Kids, or Holding Out. Tell me they ripped those off. The issue is that there are so many bands in the US with a similar sound. It happens. I knew 3DG long before I ever heard of Sick Puppies and Monster is my current addiction. I never heard a similarity to another song by another band, even after you guys mentioned it. I highly agree with badcharlotte427's reply to your comment.

@CerberusT93 if this was part of the sick puppies austrialian album, isn't this made BEFORE "it's all over"?
