They chained me up to a tree. Daggers, bricks, and stones they threw. They only act on instinct. They know not what they do.
You tried to block and cease them. You tried to help them see. The danger was so real, But it wasn't coming from me.
They judged me by my cover, But you read me like a book. All they saw was a monster. It was you who understood.
You didn't see an animal. You saw a human being. In this story, you are the beauty. And I am the beast.
They look but they don't see. They built the cage that set me free. They called it destiny. You called it blasphemy. They hear but they don't listen. They only fear what's risen. They try to keep me imprisoned. You can't change their decision.
You were the one who made me feel alive. Just like the moon, you're so captivating. Throughout this curse, you never left my side. Even in the darkest of nights, you shine bright. When a creature was all they could see, You saw the man in me. You saved me, saved me. Now I owe you my life. They'll never take us. They'll never break us down.
This crowd is growing restless. Still all your efforts are endless. Does your kindness have no bounds? Why do you still stand your ground?
As this world is falling apart, You've given me a reason to start Believing there might just still be A heart somewhere deep within me.
As this world turns to ashes, I'm watching as my life flashes, But these are not my memories. They're dreams of what we could be.
I appreciate all that you've done, But baby it's time to run. They won't stop ‘til they see blood. Well then I'll give 'em a flood.
Now I see them charging. Why are you not budging? To me, I care not what they do, But God help them if they touch you. They won't be given a sentence. I'll erase them from existence. With God as my witness, I will have my vengeance.
You were the one who made me feel alive. Just like the moon, you're so captivating. Throughout this curse, you never left my side. Even in the darkest of nights, you shine bright. When a creature was all they could see, You saw the man... the man in me. You saved me, saved me. Now I owe you my life. They'll never take us. They'll never break us down.
