Lyric

Let the beast within me wake when I’m shut away

Pulling fire through the cracks beneath my skin

Drag my breath into the wild hunger I can’t restrain

And twist my fear into a trembling, fierce devotion

The moment the door closes on my trembling breath

A quiet heat coils low beneath my ribs

Your shadow lingers like a collar on my pulse

And something feral shifts softly inside me

A hidden growl curls through the tiny silence

Scratching lightly at the girl I pretend to be

Your imagined warmth presses deep into my bones

Awakening the creature I tried to chain down

My thoughts scrape at the walls enclosing me

Each heartbeat trembling closer to release

I feel the beast breathe with my shaking breath

Rising as the world narrows into darkness

Let the beast within me wake when I’m shut away

Pulling fire through the cracks beneath my skin

Drag my breath into the wild hunger I can’t restrain

And twist my fear into a trembling, fierce devotion

Let the confinement echo with my rising heat

Teach the girl I was to break open for you

Shape my surrender into something feral and raw

The beast inside me wakes the moment I’m trapped

Your silence crawls like heat along the wooden walls

Stroking the part of me I’m afraid to meet

The creature stirs deeper with every darkened second

Its heartbeat syncing slowly with my own

A low vibration hums through my fragile ribs

Too wild to hide, too sweet to fight

I feel its breath warm beneath my trembling chest

And I stop pretending I want it asleep

My pulse tumbles into something dangerous

A rhythm only your shadow could awaken

I chase the heat rising fast under my skin

Falling deeper into the creature’s call

If I lose myself, let it be to this awakening

Where the beast’s truth is sharper than fear

Your phantom touch curls softly around my spine

And I open to the wildness meant to break me

Take the flickering light trembling in my chest

And feed it to the beast stretching awake

Let my breath collapse into raw, wild devotion

Twisting innocence into fire made for you

Drag my soul along the edge of its rising growl

Bind my heartbeat to the creature born in your shadow

Let the darkness turn me into something untamed

The beast within me wakes whenever you lock me away

Somewhere in the tightness holding me still

Its warmth curls deeper into my bones

And even as the night closes over the box

I breathe with the beast that wakes for you
