The Beast Within Lyrics by Jim Caroll

The Beast Within Lyrics

    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 . . .
