Original Broadway Cast of Frozen
Monster
[ELSA]
It's finally come, come to knock down my door
I can't hide this time like I hid before
The storm is awake, the danger is real
My time's running out, don't feel, don't feel

"Fear will be your enemy
And death its consequence"
That's what they once said to me
And it's starting to make sense
All this pain, all this fear began because of me
Is the thing they see, the thing I have to be

A monster, were they right?
Has the dark in me finally come to light?
Am I a monster full of rage
Nowhere to go but on a rampage?
Or am I just a monster in a cage?

[HANS & MALE ENSEMBLE]
End this winter, bring back summer
Keep your guard up

[HANS]
No harm comes to her
[HANS & MALE ENSEMBLE]
End this winter, bring back summer
Keep your guard up

[ELSA]
What do I do?
No time for crying now
I've started a storm, gotta stop it somehow

Do I keep on running?
How far do I have to go?
And will that take the storm away
Or only make it grow?

I'm making my world colder
How long can it survive?
Is everyone in danger as long as I'm alive?

Was I a monster from the start?
How did I end up with this frozen heart?
Bringing destruction to the stage
Caught in a war that I never meant to wage

Do I kill the monster?
Father, you know what's best for me
If I die, will they be free?
Mother, what if after I'm gone
The cold gets colder and the storm rages on?
No!
I have to stay alive to fix what I've done
Save the world from myself
And bring back the sun

[ELSA, (HANS & ENSEMBLE)]
If I'm a monster, then it's true (End this winter, bring back summer)
There's only one thing that's left for me to do (Keep your guard up!)
But before I fade to white (End this winter, bring back summer)
I'll do all that I can to make things right (Keep your guard up!)

I cannot be a monster
I will not be a monster
Not tonight!
(Monster! Monster!)
(Monster!!!)
