Chase the Beast
Find that door we'd found before,
fly in before it closes,
then turn your light upon it love,
and chase that beast right out the door
Chase it now from near my heart,
back through the door
into the dark
Into the night where it belongs,
it won't look back,
if your light stays strong
Find it now, the frozen one
it's cold grip clutching at my soul,
a numbing monster, hidden well
your light again, will make it run
Shine that light and chase it down,
pin it to the frozen ground
Make it bear the fear I feel,
make it struggle,
cry and squeal
The cold one fears your loving light
it reels and hastens to escape,
the dark can't save it from this fate;
it's doom is sealed this very night
Now, keep that love light
burning bright
Keep it close to me,
each night
Don't let the beast
back near my door,
please keep your light on,
evermore
