In the darkness
just before dawn
do you hear the cry a-haunting
echoing across the moor
In the shadows of morning
just before the day
do you hear the cry a-calling
across the urban city sprawls
In the wee hours of night
when you sleep in your bed
do you hear the cry a-coming
as you open your mouth
and scream!
You are its burden
You are its mortal prey
The beast it comes a-stalking
when you shut yourself away
tearing out from inside you
it lets loose its terrible roar
haunting your dreams
calling you to listen
and making you scream out in fear
You are the beast of burden
You are the mortal prey
The beast it comes a-stalking
when you shut yourself away
You are not the predator
You are its living prey
Do you tremble when I tell
you.
Do you hide your face in shame?
Do you run away from darkness
and only live in day.
OF all the beasts unleashed
in this world of sin
Mortality, brutality
the most terrible beast
that walks
is the beast within!
You are its burden
You are its mortal prey
The beast it comes a-stalking
when you shut yourself away
tearing out from inside you
it lets loose its terrible roar,
haunting your dreams
calling you to listen
and making you scream out in fear
Perk your ears and hear it
as it draws ever near
Do you hear its cry a-haunting
you through your tears.
Do you hear its cry a-calling
you out, my dears?
You are its burden
You are its mortal prey
The beast it comes a-stalking
You can’t save yourself this way
Let it out
Let it out
Let it out
Let the burden be no more
Let it out
Let it out
Let it out
Its always hungry for blood
and it is at the door
Let it out
Let it out
You are its burden
You are its mortal prey
The beast it comes a-stalking
You can’t lock it away
Let it out
Let it out
It’s drawing ever near
Let it out
Let it out
You are nothing but your fear
Let it out
Let it out
The beast is within
Let it out
Let it out
The beast must be free
Let it out
In the darkness
just before dawn
do you hear the cry a-haunting
echoing across the moor
In the shadows of morning
just before the day
do you hear the cry a-calling
across the urban city sprawls
In the wee hours of night
when you sleep in your bed
do you hear the cry a-coming
as you open your mouth
and scream!
Let it OUT!
The Beast Within (a song of sorts)
