	When the song debuted live for the first time during the US leg of the [[Fall 2019 Tour]], the second verse had different lyrics and all vocals were sung by Lyle. According to Broussard, the band was testing several new songs during the tour, one of them being ''Monsters'', and thought of turning it into a duet.<ref>{{Cite web \|title=Interview with Lelia Broussard \|url=https://themidnight.wiki/wiki/Interview_with_Lelia_Broussard \|url-status=live \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220429201649/https://themidnight.wiki/wiki/Interview_with_Lelia_Broussard \|archive-date=April 29, 2022 \|access-date=April 29, 2022 \|website=The Midnight Wiki}}</ref> They asked her to rewrite and sing the second verse, which she did during an off day in between tour dates.

	An early demo of ''Monsters'' was released as a prize during the [[Fall 2020 ARG]]. Titled ''Monsters (early instrumental demo for KIDS)'', it is a short instrumental loop. If one listens closely, this loop can be heard in the background during the verses in the final version of the song, though it seems that the instrumentation was slightly changed. Additionally, the tempo is also slower in the final version. Compared to the other demos, this appears to be one of the earliest and least complete. The name suggests that ''Monsters'' was originally planned to be on [[Kids]].		An early demo of ''Monsters'' was released as a prize during the [[Fall 2020 ARG]].

	<blockquote>'''Tim''': From a track perspective, I wanted the verses to have a LoFi feel and then drop into something big and bombastic. It was really when Lelia Broussard of Jupiter Winter featured, and it became a duet, that everything really fell into place.		<blockquote>'''''Tim''': From a track perspective, I wanted the verses to have a LoFi feel and then drop into something big and bombastic.

	'''Tyler''': The thought of former lovers through the lens of Frankenstein’s monster appealed to me. Everyone we’ve loved is a part of us, like having emotional limbs sewn together. What happens when that love dies and you’re carrying around parts of the failed love for the rest of your life? It was great to feel this song out by playing it live with our guitarist/bass player Lelia Broussard (who is 1/2 of Jupiter Winter), and we love what she adds to the record.
