(Neeson-Leib) It's the nature of the beast To satisfy his every appetite He's never worried 'bout the cost He never worries of he's wrong or right And there's no method to his madness You watch him step up to the firing line She's almost close enough to touch He feels the heat and reads the danger sign And it's all a game It doesn't matter who plays It's the nature of the beast To jump into the fire Tell me can't you feel the heat See you walking on the wire At the crossroads of the night Too scared of pa**ion but too lonely to run Nobody wants to lose control Nobody wants to be the careless one Throwing caution to the wind 'cause making love is like a trial by fire And though you know you might get burned You've got to go with what your heart desires Between love and pain It never knows any shame It's the nature of the beast To jump into the fire Tell me can't you feel the heat See you walking on the wire And it's all a game You never know any shame It's the nature of the beast It's the way of the beast I know you've had the feeling And it makes you lose control And it makes wake up screaming It's the nature of the beast --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
