The Beast of the City V1 His is the blackest Of gifts to be given He holds with no guilt No sins to be shriven He slouches, he crouches On dank city streets Gliding, hiding Wherever it's bleak Chorus The beast of the city Is biding his time The thoughts in his head Are beyond mortal crime He'll strip your soul naked Then feed on its essence Leaving you quaking And pale in his presence The beast of the city Is biding his time V2 His is the promise Of grief and of losing He barters in pain Leaves open wounds oozing He wallows, he swallows The stench of defeat Stinking, slinking Where lost humans meet Chorus The beast of the city Is biding his time The thoughts in his head Are beyond mortal crime He'll strip your soul naked Then feed on its essence Leaving you quaking And pale in his presence The beast of the city Is biding his time Bridge Only a pure heart might save him But where's the pure heart That would brave him? Chorus The beast of the city Is biding his time The thoughts in his head Are beyond mortal crime He'll strip your soul naked Then feed on its essence Leaving you quaking And pale in his presence The beast of the city Is biding his time © 2014 Donna Devine x
