Monolith

A
I'm yours for the taking, a piece of clay
D
Mold me to be what you want today
A
Shape me, and I'll try my best to stay
D
  I'll stand tall
A
Give me all your pain and your trauma bond
D
I'll be the shoulder that you cry on
A                                D
Listen to the sound of my aching voice
D
 I'll be here

  Bm                  E
When wolves come to hunt my flesh
A        G           D/F#
I wish someone would save me
Bm                     E
'Cause God knows that I spend my life
A     G        D/F#
 Doing all of the saving
Bm               E           A
  I guess that I'll just be a cardboard
G           D/F#
Cutout or a meme
Bm                 E
  Whatever they want me to be

           D             Dm
I am the monument, the monolith
   A             G         D/F#
A wound cracked open for them to pour salt
In
D                 Dm
Exposed nerves, a tooth that's pulled
 A           G
A vibrant bouquet
    D/F#                  D      Dm
Getting plucked 'til it's nothing

A
Hand me the weight of your soul again
D
I'm just a mirror that you live in
 A                            D
Statue of everything that you love
D
 And what you hate
A
Tell me what it is that I owe you now
D
While I run my head to the fucking ground
A                               D
Wish I could get up and run away
D
 But who'd be there?

 Bm               E
And when I take off my mask
A    G       D/F#
 I wish someone would see me
Bm             E
  Sullen, bruised, and scorned
A        G        D/F#
 A stitched-up doll with their heart beating
Bm               E
  I've said how I felt before
A        G     D/F#              Bm
  But still, no one was listening
           E
Guess I'll go missing

           D             Dm
I am the monument, the monolith
  A              G         D/F#
A wound cracked open for them to pour salt
In
D                  Dm
Exposed nerves, a tooth that's pulled
 A           G
A vibrant bouquet
      D/F#                D      Dm
Getting plucked 'til it's nothing

Bm
Fantasize, romanticize
  E
Infantilize and project lies
  A               E/G#
Dehumanize and scrutinize
F#m                           Bm
God, why won't you euthanize me?
                               E
A pillar, an icon, a relic, a ruin
                                 A
A demon, a whore, a girl who's stupid
              G                 D/F#
A pillar, an icon, a relic, a ruin
                                 Bm
A demon, a whore, a girl who's stupid
                               E
A pillar, an icon, a relic, a ruin
                                 A
A demon, a whore, a girl who's stupid
              G                 D/F#
A pillar, an icon, a relic, a ruin
A demon, a whore, a girl who's stupid
A pillar, an icon, a relic, a ruin
A demon, a whore, a girl who's stupid
A pillar, an icon, a relic, a ruin
A demon, a whore, a girl who's stupid
