The Beast

Where did our love go

You will never know

How did you get home

You will never know

Did you catch yourself in the mirror

It's a sight I understand

You considered it all for a second

And put it down to slight of hand

You know I've been running 'round for hours

Calling my 'gyptian blood

To bear me flowers

Calling Sophia, Goddess of power

Instead I got the beast

And tonight he lies with me

Tonight he lies with me

Tonight he lies with me

And here comes the beast

You're ok now, I suppose

You're not pulled by the rope

I'm pulled by the pull of my throat

I'm pulled by the rope

I swing from the trees into the slope

Hold my head high

Just by the tip of my toes

He lies, he lies so sweet that I choke

Tonight I choose the beast

Tonight he lies with me

Tonight he lies with me

Tonight he lies with me

And here comes the beast

Put your eyes away

If you can't bear to see

Your old lady

Lay down next to the beast

Tonight he lies with me

Tonight he lies with me

And here comes the beast

If you catch yourself in the mirror

It's a sight I understand

You consider it all for a second

And put it down to slight of hand

I give you the best advice that I can

I suggest that you be grateful

There’s no blood on my hands

And assume yourself weaker to the fall of man

And look out for the beast

Tonight he lies with me

Tonight he lies with me

And here comes the beast

Put your eyes away

If you can't bear to see

Your old lady lay down next to the beast

Tonight he lies with me

Tonight he lies with me

And here comes the beast
