Today happens to be the day that Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them comes to theaters. I thought I would pay tribute to that by making a song about a character who is truly a fantastic beast. Hope you enjoy!
"The Beast"
Verse 1:
It's been awhile since I've belonged among you
Even among friends I feel so alone
I am different, I am a monster
There is something evil that lives in my bones
I don't want to hurt anyone
I didn't choose to be this way
But I can't stop it, I can't control it
The other me could be hungry today
Chorus 1:
Get away from me!
I don't want to hurt you, please
I am dangerous
There's a wolf that lives within me
I could change at any moment
I won't be the same guy very soon
Go, before the beast comes out
Go before I am caught by the moon
Verse 2:
I am torn on what I am supposed to be
You taught me that I am something else
Not a monster, a beast, a werewolf
But just a guy whose pet doesn't behave well
I know you try, but you can't understand
What it's like to be one of my kind
You're a wizard, I'm a mistake
There's something primal I can't hide
Chorus 2:
Get away from me!
I don't want to hurt you, please
I am dangerous
There's a wolf that lives within me
I could change at any moment
I won't be the same guy very soon
Go, before the beast comes out
Go before I am caught by the moon
Bridge:
I am so tired…
Get away!
Please just give up…
Get away!
You can't help me…
Get away!
Let me bear this…
Get away!
You have to leave…
Am I changing?
I can feel it coming…
I am changing
This is your last chance…
I am changing
Just come a little closer…
I am HUNGRY!
Chorus 3:
Get away from me!
I don't want to hurt you, please
I am dangerous
There's a wolf that lives within me
I could change at any moment
I won't be the same guy very soon
Go, before the beast comes out
Go before I am caught by the moon
I am coming for you!
