Beauty in Every Beast

Beauty in Every Beast

Try to hide a smile

With your trademark smirk

Try to disguise

How you feel

With lies

That won't work

But can you stand

The distance

Between right and wrong

When you know how blurred

The lines have gone

 

Chorus

You're an open book

And I'm an open flame

I see through that act

Despite all your claims

So don't pretend

You're like all the rest

One lost in a million

The same

 

Because there's

Beauty in every beast

Deep, dark down inside

You're shred of decency

You can't hide it

I'm the one who can see

You're not all that different

From one like me

 

Fake a monster

While you drown in hurt

You don't scare me

I'm not the one

Who's been burned

 

It's in the things you say

That you let slip

It shows your breaking

In pieces

About to lose your grip

 

You're an open book

And I'm an open flame

I see through that act

Despite all your claims

So don't pretend

You're like all the rest

One lost in a million

The same

 

Because there's

Beauty in every beast

Deep, dark down inside

You're shred of decency

You can't hide it

I'm the one who can see

You're not all that different

From one like me

 

Why do you

Obsessively believe

No one will accept

The person that you really are

Is that really such a

Crazy dream?

That can't be,

Or do you just think

I'm wasting my time here?

I know I'm not

So just accept

Both of us really belong here

 

(chorus, softer)

(chorus, starts loud, fading out)

cool
I think this awesome and is certainly worthy of punk rock. Hell I can also see it soft with a southern twang added and done as a country lick but that's just me...! Well done my friend, well done...!
