• 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 egyptian 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 okay now, I suppose,
You're not pulled by the rope.
I'm pulled by the pull on 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
And 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
Laying down next to the beast.
Tonight he lies with me,
Tonight he lies with me
And here comes the beast.

Look at 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, the best that I can.
I suggest that you be grateful
That it's your blood on my hands.
And assume yourself weaker,
The fall of man.

And look out for 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
Laying down next to the beast.
Tonight he lies with me,
Tonight he lies with me
And here comes the beast.
