The Beast in Me

Four reputations
we are able and patient
and we just walked into your bar

Go on and look me in the eye
with all my alibis.
I don’t think so man, do you?

But when it was time to go
I went and walked my way alone

Two headlamps and an engine
were waiting in the road
and I walked right into it

I should have seen it coming
If I had not been drinking
I might have turned around

But the beast down in the hole
He comes up and he roars

When faced with unbound hatred
When pushed and when persuaded
I have no limits man

I tasted my own blood
I swung till I stood up
And I faced the three of them

And the beast in me unleashed
I hope you never see
