Melancholy Beast - Pyramaze

Skin of thorns

A breath of fire

No life comes near it

None feels it’s desire

A longing for something

To ease the loneliness

In these deep enchanted woods

It feeds on emptiness

Who hears you, who sees you

Only those who you infect with fear

No equals, a darker part of light

Your only legacy was the pleasant shades of night

And now it’s been to long

Your cry of pain to someone

You are the melancholy beast of the woods

Never have you felt at home

In the silent dark of your throne

You are the melancholy beast of the woods

Who hears your cry

Who looks beneath

A twin born creature or a fellow soul

Behold your queen

One of your kind

Not of looks, but of what’s kept inside

Who hears you, who sees you

Only those who you infect with fear

Across the ages you’ve waited patiently

Oh and now she’s here, a light so clear

And now it’s been to long

Your cry of pain to someone

You are the melancholy beast of the woods

Never have you felt at home

In the silent dark of your throne

You are the melancholy beast of the woods

And the world held it’s breath in enchantment

And the beauty and the beast within united

And the light and the dark were as one

And a new way of understanding was born
