I See Monsters
Love is Hell (Part 2)
Tab by Laura (laurac611@hotmail.com)
This is my first shot at a tab so it's sort of approximate and a few parts are simplified
from the studio track so it can be played with one guitar. Figure out the exact rhythm by
listening to the song. It's tough, good luck! E-mail me with any feedback/corrections.
Intro/Verse
"baby i know you cannot...but i love you now."

| I don't think it's supposed to be taken that literally. I think its about him wanting to be with the girl, but not being strong enough to give her what she wants or needs. | |

| This song sounds like it's about depression for me. Your're deeply in love, and you know it should work- but all you can see are the horrible little deamons that your mind throws at you, tearing your world apart. | |

| He's in love with this girl. They're both heroin addicts, and she's ODing and he's laying there next to her waiting for his high thinking how much he loves her and realizing theres nothing he can do. While everyone around him is freaking out he's just admiring her....waiting for the fix | |

| This is such a fantastic song. It's also really sad. He wishes he could tell her he loves her but she's in some other place far away. It's lovely. | |
