The Beast Lyrics - A Creature I Don't Know - Laura Marling

Where did our love go, you will never know 

How did you get home, you will never know 

Did you catch yourself in the mirror? 

It's a sight I understand 

You considered it all for a second 

And put it down to slight of hand 

You know I've been running 'round for hours 

Calling my egyptian blood to bear me flowers 

Calling sophia, goddess of power 

Instead I got the beast 

And tonight he lies with me 

Tonight he lies with me 

Tonight he lies with me 

And here comes to beast

You're okay now, I suppose 

You're not pulled by the rope 

I'm pulled by the pull on my throat 

I'm pulled by the rope 

I swing from the trees into the slope 

Hold my head high, just by the tip of my toes 

And he lies, he lies so sweet that I choke 

Tonight I choose the beast 

Tonight he lies with me 

Tonight he lies with me 

Tonight he lies with me 

And here comes the beast 

Put your eyes away 

If you can't bear to see your old lady 

Laying down next to the beast 

Tonight he lies with me 

Tonight he lies with me 

And here comes the beast

Look at yourself in the mirror 

It's a sight I understand 

You consider it all for a second 

And put it down to slight of hand 

I give you the best, the best that I can 

I suggest that you be grateful 

That it's your blood on my hands? 

And assume yourself weaker, the fall of man 

And look out for the beast 

Tonight he lies with me 

Tonight he lies with me 

And here comes the beast 

Put your eyes away 

If you can't bear to see your old lady 

Laying down next to the beast 

Tonight he lies with me 

Tonight he lies with me 

And here comes the beast
