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)

thank you Alexa. For some reason when i write lyrics, they usually come out as punk-y.

I like punk-y
Excellent work, I like the rhyme scheme and how you set up the lines. I would love to hear this set to music.

Great! The lines really flowed well and you managed them properly (:

not bad, but I think i'd still have to hear the rhythm and all that to really get the power behind it.

:D
This has got the inspirational vibe that most punk/rock bands do...it was written in a beautiful way, and i feel that it would turn out to be a great dong when you put some tune to it:):):D.

thank ya
What I like here is that the poet/composer has a feeling for lyrics in a musical sense,song lyrics do not have a lot in common with poetry ( with a few exceptions like Bob Bylan or Leonard Cohen), and this is how you write a song, you got it right...
