Lyrics Walking with the Beast - The Monochrome Set

Walking with the Beast

Picture if you will a crumpled suit\nAnd in that suit is stuffed a man\nAnd in that man is one desire\nTo taste the milk of human kindness\nWear a shroud of velvet blindness\nQuench the never-ending fire\nOh, no, I love you madly\nOh, no, I’ll kiss you gladly\nOh, my love is so enchanting, like a wishing well\nAnd in the morning afterglow\nOur parting will be sweet sorrow\nAnd life is but an empty shell\nMuscle of love, kiss me ever so sweetly\nHoney truck, hit me and rattle my bones\nWalk with the beast, and your heart will complete be In love, in love\nAnother fireship sails on by The skull and crossbones flying high\nThe mask of death is worn with pride\nFlutter, flutter, gentle eyelash, do By filthy lucre, I love you\nAnd take you for my evening bride\nMuscle of love, touch me ever so softly\nHoney truck, hit me and rattle my bones\nWalk with the beast, and your heart will aloft be In love, in love\nOnce upon a time, there was a fool,\nAnd like a fool, he made a wish\nAnd like all wishes, it came true\nTo be the captain of the ship\nTo sail into the deep abyss\nSing with the ever-loving crew\nOh, no, I love you madly\nOh, no, I’ll kiss you gladly\nOh, my love, the gentle rhythm of the rolling sea\nAnd in the shadows of the night\nThose in the darkness fade from sight\nThose in the light of love walk free\nMuscle of love, squeeze me ever so sweetly\nHoney truck, hit me and rattle my bones\nWalk with the beast, and your body will lent be To love, to love\nTo love
