The Beast with two Backs Lyrics

Under the sun, under the moon, under the stars
Throughout the night, to set you alight, to steal your soul
And conquer your mind
And all things alive, that walk on the land, or swim in the sea
Are under the will, are under the power, forever slaves
To the beast with two backs We’re still wild after all these years
Still drowning in a sea of tears
And the beast draws us to the flame
Giving us both joy and shame

Every woman and every man are but the subjects
Of total command, whatever they think, whatever they do
They are enslaved, that is the truth
All of the kings, all the queens, all of the priests, all of the nuns
The rich and the poor, for evermore

And there is no God of love
We are born of flesh and blood
To desire we are bound
In lust we are lost and found

Love born of a dream, holy and pure
Comes hand in hand with something more
At the back door the beast lies in wait
The beast lies in wait
