The Beast Is Loose

Hello my dear
I won't be home tonight
The war is finally here
But there's no need to fight.

I've heard the news
The bombs are on their way
I guess this time we lose
Everything must burn today.

Chorus:
The beast is loose
I can hear the sirens in the street
But what's the use
No warning bell can stop that heat
So take a seat
It's time to cook the goose.

It feels absurd
Waiting here to die
Without a single word
We stood and watched the sky.

High in the clouds
A rocket slowly spun
Exploding into shrouds
Like drops of white hot sun.

Chorus:

Middle 8:
I wanted to run
I needed to scream
I pointed my gun
Melting as the nightmare
Killed the dream.

Chorus:

Fade
