Wild Things

Don't let the beat
Drown out your mind
Don't let the beat
Let you leave it all behind

But slowly the beat
Will take its toll
And you will let the beat
Let you lose control

It wants what it wants
And it'll take what it can get
From you now, from you now
It takes what it wants
Until there's nothing left
Of you now, of you now

This wild thing inside my chest
Won't give up
Won't back down
Over and over and over again

It pounds against the walls of this cage
Of bone, blood, and flesh
As if each time
Wasn't more painful than the last

It starts with a shiver
That you can't suppress
Slowly doing all these things
All these things at its behest

The tremors grow stronger
With each passing day
'Til all that you are
Is shattered by the quake

It wants what it wants
And it'll take what it can get
From you now, from you now
It takes what it wants
Until there's nothing left
Of you now, of you now

This wild thing inside my chest
Won't give up
Won't back down
Over and over and over again

It pounds against the walls of this cage
Of bone, blood, and flesh
As if each time
Wasn't more painful than the last

This wild thing
This wild thing
This wild thing
This wild thing

You can't say no
You can't say no
You can't say no
You can't say no

This wild thing inside my chest
Will never give up
Never back down
Over and over and over again
