The Beast Within |
| If give me your ear |
| I’ll whisper you wind that could soothe your burnt blood |
| The door is right here |
| Breathing the air filled with powders and porn |
| Now comes the dawn |
| If I release the dove |
| Would it betray the sky and return to your cage |
| In the river above |
| Can I fold back the pages and just take one look |
| Into your jungle book |
| Refrain: Some say it’s a lie, some say it’s a sin |
| Do you know how it ends if you won’t let it begin? |
| You feel it waking now beneath your skin |
| You can’t live without the beast within |
| If you lift up your veil |
| Then I’ll finish the features that aren’t quite done |
| How could we fail |
| With all the miraculous masks that we wear |
| In shadows and stares |
| Let’s seal out the dare |
| Your eyes like morning, naked and wet |
| What price will we pay? |
| Now think back and tell me how we ever got here |
| Such tender years |
| Some say it’s a lie, some say it’s a sin. |
