Beast On A Chain
-- David Ian © 2006


In your golden curls you could rule my world
Tell me how is it you do this to me?
There’s an animal inside
That wants to go for a ride
And what’s keeping me from setting him free?

With a flash from your eyes you know I’m dying inside
I’m slipping slowly and I’m losing my hold
I got him on a chain
And it drives me insane
Why should I be the one who’s controlled?

And just how wrong would it be
To let desire go free
For just one night?
To be honest for an hour?
To unleash its surging power?

Would I be the man you see
If I release that Beast in me
In all its might?
Or be a stranger in your eyes
Someone you’ll eventually despise?

I don’t know how long
That I can handle the strain
I’m trying to resist
But I’m fighting with a Beast on a chain

I don’t know how long
That I can tighten the slack
I’m trying to resist
But I just can’t hold it back

And it’s a Beast
That’s straining to be releas’d
To give our flesh a feast

It’s snarlin’! Darlin’!

You and me got a date with destiny
And you know that we gotta get free;
We’re bustin’ out like a runaway freight train
And I’m fighting with a Beast on a chain
Yeah, I’m fighting with a Beast on a chain
