Monster lyrics

So we were up

Thowin' dice in the dark

I saw you late, last night, come to harm

I saw you dance in the devil's arms

The night kept coming

Really nothing I could do

Eyes with a fire, unquenched, by peace

Cast the beauty, cast the queen

So we come

To a place of no return

Yours is the face, that makes my body burn

And here is the name that our sons will learn:

Cast the beauty, cast the queen

Cast the beauty, leave me

So when you're weak

When you are on your knees

I'll do my best, with the time, that's left

Sworn with your spirit, you're fully fleshed

So fuck your dreams

And don't you pick at our seams

I'll turn into a monster for you, If you pay me enough

None of this counts, a few dreams, plowed up

So we come

To a place of no return

Yours is the face, which makes my body burn

And here is the name, that our sons will learn:

Cast the beauty, cast the queen

Cast the beauty, leave me
