[00:00.24]05 The Beast
[00:02.10]
[00:13.47]Where did our love go you will never know
[00:24.22]How did you get home you will never know
[00:32.35]Did you catch yourself in the mirror
[00:39.29]It's a sight I understand
[00:43.16]You consider it all for a second
[00:50.47]And put it down to slight of hand
[00:55.85]
[00:56.72]You know I've been running 'round for hours
[01:01.41]
[01:06.38]Calling my Egyptian blood to bear me flowers
[01:17.41]Calling Sophia goddess of power
[01:22.72]
[01:27.47]Instead I got the beast
[01:29.97]And tonight he lies with me
[01:32.53]Tonight he lies with me
[01:35.35]Tonight he lies with me
[01:37.47]And here come the beast
[01:40.53]
[01:46.10]You're okay now I suppose
[01:56.97]You're not pulled by the rope
[02:06.72]I'm pulled by the pull on my throat
[02:09.47]
[02:12.11]I'm pulled by the rope
[02:16.11]I swing from the trees into the slope
[02:28.74]Hold my head high just by the tip of my toes
[02:39.52]And he lies he lies so sweet that I choke
[02:44.14]
[02:49.14]Tonight I choose the beast
[02:51.76]Tonight he lies with me
[02:54.46]Tonight he lies with me
[02:57.33]Tonight he lies with me
[03:00.08]And here come the beast
[03:02.14]
[03:06.71]Put your eyes away
[03:08.21]
[03:09.47]If you can't bear to see your old lady
[03:13.28]Laying down next to the beast
[03:16.72]Tonight he lies with me
[03:19.34]Tonight he lies with me
[03:21.28]And here come the beast
[03:23.28]
[03:41.03]Look at yourself in the mirror
[03:47.53]It's a sight I understand
[03:52.78]You consider it all for a second
[03:58.41]And put it down to slight of hand
[04:04.22]I give you the best the best that I can
[04:08.53]
[04:13.91]I'd suggest that you be grateful
[04:16.35]There's no blood on my hands
[04:24.91]And assume yourself weaker the fall of man
[04:30.41]
[04:34.47]And look out for the beast
[04:36.59]Tonight he lies with me
[04:39.78]Tonight he lies with me
[04:42.47]Tonight he lies with me
[04:44.66]And here come the beast
[04:46.09]
[04:51.66]Put your eyes away
[04:54.34]If you can't bear to see your old lady
[04:59.41]Laying down next to the beast
[05:01.53]Tonight he lies with me
[05:04.03]Tonight he lies with me
[05:06.22]And here come the beast
