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 got
Something to prove

Out in the streets
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 got nothing to lose
You need it
Know you 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 gotta do is think
About it

There's no cure
