Seeded by chance on a fertile ground We were born too soon and grew up too fast And the garden was lush when we came to light Nettles in the grass, tares among the wheat, We were tough and fierce and we loved the rain as much as the drought
The other monsters and me(X2) Looking so cute and so twee and as light as light could be The other monsters and me(X2) We hadn't any idea of what the future would be
And we loved to stare at the tortured skies Our hearts were hard and so tough and proud enough to lie We had no remorse and we had no hope And we seldom made friends, often shunned the few ones we had Then we died one by one without any regret Everything was said and done when we saw our sun set Changing unfair unstable often cruel and wrongheaded Passing from A to B morphing from this to that Our "this" had no face, our "that" had no name
The other monsters and me(X2) Kings of inconsistency and as light as light could be The other monsters and me(X2) We hadn't any idea of what the future would be
Of wourse we these days wouldn't last we had to live fast And we often heard our elders talk about a forthcoming heaven on earth And we hated their life in a fool's paradise Then we died one by one without any regret And we knew what it meant but would never repent The other monsters and me(X8)
