free the beast
you might be scared of what you find
buried deep inside of you
it may not feel alright
but at least you'll feel alive
when you let go of your mind
let go of your control
and let repression take it's toll
triggered by a friend
you were trying to console

it will haunt your dreams so you can't sleep
wrench your gut so you can't eat
cloud your eyes so you can't see
and rip your soul so you can't be
it will strip you down slow and steady
and grow you up before you're ready

the glory days of ignorant bliss
when out of mind and out of sight
felt oh so right
is a time and place i truly miss
