The Beast

Run from the beast, there’s danger in his eyes
He’s been looking for you for a long time
You might think this is funny, but I’m not laughing
I know it couldn’t happen to me

No one doubts the wisdom of this move
You’re getting older and you know you've got something to prove

Out in the street the modern vampire prowls
He’s been spreading disease all around
There’s an epidemic, if you don’t believe me
You ought to take a look at the eyes of your friends

When someone tempts you, you can’t refuse
It’s getting colder and you know you've got nothing to lose
You need it, know you've got nothing to lose, you need it

Run from the beast, there’s darkness in his mind
He’s been looking for you for a long time
You might think this is funny, but I’m not laughing
I know that it couldn’t happen to me

I don’t care about it happening to me

I’ve tried to show you your whole life in print
You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink
Think about it, all you've gotta do is think about it

There’s no cure
