The Beast
Standing among heroes
This beast laughs at you
Happiness and pain that never goes
Glaring red eyes in a dark sky
Piercing claws reaching out
The belief you could fly
Transformed to doubt
For this beast has captured you
In this grasp you'll remain
Nothing is left for you to do
Say hello to an unwelcomed pain
Society and movies spoke their lies
This beast has its aid
Once again one cries
For the cost of love must be paid.
