Whistle Down The Wind - Nature Of The Beast lyrics

[Swallow] It seems to me you waited till the time came I believe, you returned for us at last It seems to me you tested me so many ways I believe, every test I pa**ed It seems to me that every test I pa**ed [The Man] If you go deep down inside my eye's, do you see a saviour, a prophet or even a priest? Or do you only see the blackness there, that's the nature of the beast The one that you should fear the most, may be the ones you fear the least If you know me then you have to know, the nature of the beast There are hungry devils everywhere, it's on my heart they feast Let me rise above the carca** of this all too mortal beast If I had the chance I'd fly away, I'd see myself released I'd fly above the carca** of this poor, pathetic beast [Swallow] I don't know why you try to make me doubt you I don't know why when I believe my spirit so Some day soon, they'll no longer threaten you Till that day all my prayers are yours Until then, all my prayers are yours [The Man] The things that you despise the most maybe the ones that can stand the least There are lots of things you've yet to learn about the nature of the beast There's always wars and plagues and d**h, the terrors have never ceased There's nothing you or I can do about the nature of the beast [Swallow] I'm not afraid, you taught me that [The Man] You fool why can't you see [Swallow] I'm not listening to a word you say, It was God sent you to me [The Man] What's the only sound left in this world, when every other sound has ceased? It's the breathing in and the breathing out It's still, it's still, in me It's still the nature of the beast There are hungry devils everywhere, it's on my heart they feast Let me rise above the carca** of this pitiable beast If I had the chance I'd fly away, I'd see my soul released I'd fly above the carca** of the nature of the beast [Swallow] There's a prayer for the lost and for the lonely There's a prayer to make the blind one's see But if you, you are not what you must be Then it's true you haven't got a prayer for me And I, I haven't got a prayer:... I have nothing [The Man] So many things in your life that your bound to regret Why didn't I do this? Why didn't I do that? So many chances you've lost that you'll never forget So many unspoken vows, so many unopened doors So many unbroken chains, so many unsettled scores Why didn't I take it? Why didn't I make it come true? [Swallow] No one's ever looked at me [Swallow & The Man] No one's ever looked at me The way your looking at me now
