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

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
