I Feel Like A Monster...

We were all made in the image of God. But sin came, and led us down a path of destruction. Not the destruction of God, but the destruction of ourselves. I admit that I am a sinner. I'm no perfect guy, let me tell you. I have addictions that always seem to take hold on me, till I at times, I don't even recognize myself anymore. I struggle to find the root of all my sins till at times I just wanna give up. I know I can't do this on my own. I remembered feeling how God can still forgive me, and all of us, day after day for the sins we've committed. And I wondered to myself; "If I was God, I would hate myself"
Sin makes us all monsters It festers right under our skin. If we give in to it, slowly, we begin to lose ourselves to it until we really are monsters. One example I can think of is Ted Bundy. A horrific example of a monster. So here's a song about sin for you all (lyrics included). 


VERSE 1:
The secret side of me, I never let you see
I keep it caged but I can't control it
So stay away from me, the beast is ugly
I feel the rage and I just can't hold it

It's scratching on the walls, in the closet, in the halls
It comes awake and I can't control it
Hiding under the bed, in my body, in my head
Why won't somebody come and save me from this, make it end?
CHORUS:
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I hate what I've become, the nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster

I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
VERSE 2:
My secret side I keep hid under lock and key
I keep it caged but I can't control it
'Cause if I let him out he'll tear me up, break me down
Why won't somebody come and save me from this, make it end?

BRIDGE:
It's hiding in the dark, it's teeth are razor sharp
There's no escape for me, it wants my soul, it wants my heart
No one can hear me scream, maybe it's just a dream
Maybe it's inside of me, stop this monster
  
"God, help us to fight the monster within us. With You, all things are possible."
