Lyrics

The Beast

The morning that I was born again
I was made into a beast
Am I free now, am I at peace?
Is that the ground below me or your feet?

The morning I saw your face again
I was made into a beast
Am I free now, am I at peace?
Is that the ground below me or your feet?

And I'll break my head over you this way

    As we charge full-length into the coming apocalypse, we can’t say we weren’t warned.
