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 consider it all for a second
 And put it down to sleight of hand
 You know I've been running 'round for hours
 Calling my Gyptian 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 come the beast
 "You're OK 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
 And tonight, he lies with me
 Tonight, he lies with me
 Tonight, he lies with me
 And here come the beast
 Put your eyes away if you can't bear to see
 Your old lady lay down next to the beast
 Tonight, he lies with me
 Tonight, he lies with me
 And here come the beast
 ♪
 Catch yourself in the mirror
 It's a sight I understand
 You consider it all for a second
 And put it down to sleight of hand
 I give you the best advice that I can
 What I suggest is you be grateful there's no blood on my hands
 And assume yourself weaker to the fall of man
 And look out for the beast
 Tonight, he lies with me
 Tonight, he lies with me
 And tonight, he lies with me
 And here come the beast
 Put your eyes away if you can't bear to see
 Your old lady lay down next to the beast
 Tonight, he lies with me
 Tonight, he lies with me
 And here come the beast
