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 . . .
