Behind your screen, people are not what they seem
Or what they can make you believe

They always say don't meet your heroes
And now I see why
Who could have known how much it'd suck to meet you
But now the monsters come to life
(But now the monsters come to life)

I've seen your face a trillion times
But I never thought to read between the lines
Fool me once and it's shame on me
Fool me twice and there's no saying where the blame should be
I'm not sorry

You're not thanked or welcome and
I don't wanna see your face
(I'm not sorry) around here anymore

They always say don't meet your heroes
And now I see why
Who could have known how much it'd suck to meet you
But now the monsters come to life
(But now the monsters come to life)

I've seen you try to convey
But you're unable to carry all that weight
(Carry all that weight)
You are not who you say
So how you carry on each day
Remains a mystery
(Mystery)
You're not thanked or welcome and
I don't wanna see your face
(I'm not sorry) around here anymore

They always say don't meet your heroes
And now I see why
Who could have known how much it'd suck to meet you
But now the monsters come to life
(But now the monsters come to life)

This isn't up to you
I'm sure you wish you knew
In my experience
I'm only looking out for you

This isn't up to you
I'm sure you wish you knew
In my experience
I'm only looking out for you

They always say don't meet your heroes
And now I see why
Who could have known how much it'd suck to meet you
But now the monsters come to life
(But now the monsters come to life)
