You can say I'm mad, you can say I'm crazy,
Sinner in the darkness, liar in the church,
Deaf man's silence, the blind man's search.
Teardrop falling, memory recalling,
I rise to meet you as your trust dissolves to shame,
Oh this innocence has turned & lost its way,
Retrace the footprints off the path from which I came,
I'm the beast in you, the beast in me.
Which way are we going?
Bite my nails right down to the skin,
Where one trust ends another lie begins.
Patch over holes in my weakened heart,
Which angels hold & devils pull apart.
I'm the beast in you, the beast in me,
The bitterness, the jealousy,
And you hardly can imagine what you never had before,
And the reason that you're given still leaves you wanting more.
And you hardly can imagine what you never had before,
And the reason that you're given still leaves you wanting more.
I rise to meet you as your trust dissolves to shame,
Oh this innocence has turned & lost its way,
Retrace the footprints off the path from which I came,
I'm the beast in you, the beast in me.
