The Beast (Vie)
I was so green at 22
I didn't know yet what to do
Out of my head, out of control
That's when the devil got my soul
Seems my old lady's crazy too
We got so much hate that our love grew
Riding the wave with her behind
Trouble is never hard to find

And it happens again
Is it coming along?
My body dies and the
Beast inside lives on

Drinkin' my way from place to place
Getting in everybody's face
Having a coke without the smile
Counting the broken-up floor tiles
Taking a pill for everything
Give me the will to spread my wings
Riding the horse from town to town
That was the force that kept me down

Repeat Chorus

Me and my sisters keep in touch
They know I love them both so much
Mother has never understood
But I know she did the best she could
Try to be sunny all the time
Try to keep money off my mind
And I could have everything I see
But I got the beast and it's got me
