If the monster was bruised, too broken to move
Would you stand there watching, a point to prove
If she hid her face, let out a single silent tear
Would you approach her, set aside your fear
If the monster was violently torn to pieces, left all alone
Would you step towards her, stomach the fleshless bone
If she flinched at your touch, covered it up with a smile
Would you notice or let it chase you further away a mile
If the monster was running short of breaths, fighting for air
Would you stand a world apart, pretending that you care
If she was almost out of heartbeats, still determined as before
Would you stand in the shadows, now hoping that you did more
Would you be by her side as the light was stolen from her eyes
Would you stand by her, try to fight through all of their lies
Would you hold her body even though a monster it had been
The words are wrapped up pretty, worth more than what they mean.
