The Beast Within
Locked up
Held in
Call the preacher for all of your sins
The lord cant solve your problems There permanently there
Etched in you like a canvas
You numbly stare
Oo bite the bullet
Bottle it up
Theres a bomb inside you
And its blowing up
Forgive me father
I have sinned
Fighting battles trying to win
Fighting for freedom
Striving for truth
But the true monsters their inside of you
Yeah there deep inside of you
So tell me
How do you slay the beast
When the beast is within me
Will it absorb the best of me
Or take my pain away
Fight your demons
To find your soul
Do it quick before they swallow you whole
Every day is like walking thin ice
Any move could be your last
So you better think twice
Forgive me father
I have sinned
Fighting battles trying to win
Fighting for freedom
Striving for truth
But the true monsters there inside of you
Yeah there deep inside of you
Swallow the unforgiving truth
See what the demons have in store for you
Fate its impossible to chase
No matter how you try
You cant erase
The future drawn for you
What youll have to face
This song is about my struggles with anorexia. Hope you enjoy. Please give me any and all comments you have and BE HONEST thanks!
