The Beast from Battle Cry by Morgan Nicole

Hello again, my friend. I adore you
Giving all I’ll ever want or need
“Quiet now,” You whisper, goodbye fortitude
Traded in for temporary peace

I will not bow before the beast
I just need this lovely reprieve
Some may fall into hellish despair
You lift me up and answer every prayer

Hello again, my friend, I implore you
Keep me content inside a dream
I will while away the minutes, hours, days
Watching all of my life slip away

I will not bow before the beast
I just want a little reprieve
From this whole hellish affair
But maybe you don’t really care

Hello again, my former friend
It seems that we have reached the end
What did you sell me but a lie
I fell for it time after time

My friend, the beast, has made me bow
And looking back I can see how
It never gave me peace or hope
Just a rope around my throat

Just a rope around my throat
