Don't let the beat
Drown out your mind
Don't let the beat
Let you leave it all behind
But slowly the beat
Will take its toll
And you will let the beat
Let you lose control
It wants what it wants
And it'll take what it can get
From you now, from you now
It takes what it wants
Until there's nothing left
Of you now, of you now
This wild thing inside my chest
Won't give up
Won't back down
Over and over and over again
It pounds against the walls of this cage
Of bone, blood, and flesh
As if each time
Wasn't more painful than the last
It starts with a shiver
That you can't suppress
Slowly doing all these things
All these things at its behest
The tremors grow stronger
With each passing day
'Til all that you are
Is shattered by the quake
It wants what it wants
And it'll take what it can get
From you now, from you now
It takes what it wants
Until there's nothing left
Of you now, of you now
This wild thing inside my chest
Won't give up
Won't back down
Over and over and over again
It pounds against the walls of this cage
Of bone, blood, and flesh
As if each time
Wasn't more painful than the last
This wild thing
This wild thing
This wild thing
This wild thing
You can't say no
You can't say no
You can't say no
You can't say no
This wild thing inside my chest
Will never give up
Never back down
Over and over and over again
