If you could only see the beast you've made of me

I held it in but now it seems instead you're running free

Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart

Drive our teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart



My fingers crawl your skin, try to tempt my way in

You are the moon that makes the night for which I have to howl

My fingers crawl your skin, try to tempt my way in

You are the moon that makes the night for which I have to



Howl, howl

Howl, howl



Now there's no holding back, I'm in to attack

My blood is singing with your voice, I want to pour it out

The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound

I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hollow ground



Like some child possessed, the beast howls in my bed

I want to claw out and tear out all of your tenderness



And howl, howl

Howl, howl



Be careful of the curse that haunts all young lovers

Starts so tender and sweet and turns them into hunters

Hunters, hunters, hunters

Hunters, hunters, hunters



The fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress

Until I wrap myself inside your arms I cannot rest

The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound

I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hollow ground



And howl



Be careful of the curse that haunts all young lovers

Starts so tender and sweet and turns them into hunters



If you could only see the beast you've made of me

I held it in but now it seems instead you're running free

Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart

Drive our teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart
