The Beast

I woke up in a pouring sweat

Feeling like I have nothing left

My heart sits tight, but my mind's beat to death

I'm in a dark space taking shallow breaths

I thought I could get a grip – no chance

My hands are slippery, cold, I take a glance

At the man in the mirror, who's that?

Can't stand the sight, trying to move back

I'm on the floor, I'm awaiting the attack

My mind's been beat, I'm never getting back

To what I call home, no way see I'm trapped

This is hard now, I can't fight back

It's taking hold – taking control

I'm in the belly of a beast that I can't tame

Grips my mind and soul

Take hold – take control

I'm in the belly of a beast that I can't tame

There's still hope

I can't think, I feel trapped

Can't speak, I feel weak, I wanna fight back

As I sink deeper, will I come back

It's what I ask myself, I want my life back

This fear grips [?]

[?] but can they stop it

There's something cold in here [?] there's a voice

[?] but I can't see clear

It's taking hold – taking control

I'm in the belly of a beast that I can't tame

Grips my mind and soul

Take hold – take control

I'm in the belly of a beast that I can't tame

Just let me go

Grab a hold, grab a tight grip

It's your life, grab it like a vice grip

[?]

So fight!

Kill this fucking beast
