Blessed Be the Beast

BLESSED BE THE BEAST

 

Interstate for the first time

Barely going 45

Knuckles white at 10 and 2

Paralyzed when I think of you

 

And I'm back in Spanish class

Mrs. Gavilanes

How do you say die'?

She asked me why

I stared with hollow eyes

Cause my friend died last night

Now I am terrified

Of learning how to drive

 

And she said

Hurry up your love

Hurry up your love

If you let it slow you down

You'll miss everyone still around

Hurry up your love

Hurry up your love

You're not fooling me

Facing forward, the rearview is all you see

Hurry your love

 

So I said,

What's the point then?

Do you love only to lose it? That's so stupid.

And she laughed

And said, Oh,

One day, you'll look back and know

What you don't give (only hurts you in the end)

 

And the older that you get

Is the luckier you've been

Be happy for them, for their fortune

And oh, I saw the light

Through the feet all round the eyes

That dance with the stories

That came way before me

 

And she said

Hurry up your love

Hurry up your love

I know you're scared to let it grow

Cause then there's more you will let go

Hurry up your love

Hurry up your love

You're not fooling me

Facing forward, the rearview is all you see

Hurry your love

 

Yeah, one day we'll die

But all the other ones, we're alive!

 

Blessed be the beast!

Time is but a thief!

Blessed be the beast!

Time is but a thief!
