Last night I dreamt again

and the monsters found me there

but a bittersweet redemption was promised

in their smiles, those hideous snares

Because I am still a monster, no gilded heroine

And falling to my knees didn't save me from my sin

Because it didn't un-cry your tears

But what scares me most is that I'm what you fear

I could be the light of dawn, but never the light for you

And so, 'til once again I'm gone

once upon a time will have to do

Please don't think me a monster;

I am what I am only because of you.
