Lyric

White flash, a crack of sound

Shakes the cage and shakes the ground

Something ancient, deep inside

Has no place left to hide

The smell of ozone, taste of rain

A memory of primal pain

Your hand is warm, a steady grace

But I see a stranger in my face

The civilized veneer wears thin

Let the storm, let the storm in

Static on my leash, a second skin

While the thunder calls the beast within

(Electronic zap and deep rumble)

I press my body to the floor

And dream of lightning at the door

The good dog trembles, wants to please

But the wolf is gnawing for release

Polished floors and a velvet bed

But the hunt is screaming in my head

You call my name, a gentle word

The most terrifying sound I've ever heard

It pulls me back from the abyss

With the poison of a traitor's kiss

Your hand is warm, a steady grace

But I see a monster in this place

The civilized veneer wears thin

Let the storm, let the storm win

Static on my leash, a second skin

While the thunder calls the beast within

(Electronic zap and deep rumble)

I press my body to the floor

And dream of lightning at the door

The good dog trembles, wants to please

But the wolf is gnawing for release

This chain... it feels like comfort

This cage... it feels like home

Is that the lie I tell myself

To keep from being alone...?

Static on my leash, a final sin!

Let the thunder break the beast within!

(Aggressive electronic zap and deep rumble)

I claw my nails into the floor!

There is no master at the door!

The good dog's dead, it can't appease!

The wolf is begging for release!
