A Beast

A beast with a silver tongue

A heart of fool's gold

A body covered in scars

A mind full of pain

Lies hidden behind pretty words

Pain hidden behind false smiles

Eternal loneliness

These are what the beast lives with

The darkness questions

Where's your strength

How dare you feel this way

What gives you the right

The darkness says he deserves it

Maybe he does

After what he has done

Does he deserve forgiveness

His soul cries out

Begs for the darkness to leave

Anything, as long as it will leave

The darkness only digs in deeper

Escape is all he wants

There is only one way

It is to lie down in a coffin

And that's the way the beast likes it
