Beat the Beast is a rock song (somewhere between pop-rock and progressive). It is the story of a couple “somewhat” dysfunctional, of a love affair becoming something more brutal.

Just one night of love
Is all I ever wanted
I took her for a dove
Love and peace, a promise
Grasping softness stroking my skin
My heart in a frantic sprint
When did it stop being feral
When did I start hearing carols?
Beat the beast
Just one night of love
Is not what she wanted
Inside that velvet glove
Whip and fear, no release
Yearning for bliss under the pin
My heart in a frantic sprint
When did she stop running in circles
When did I start tasting offal
Beat the beast
Somebody please, you help me
The cold stone of the altar
Chars the rind of my soul
Anyone please, you save me
The dove became a vulture
Pecking at my liver raw
I have no energy to
Beat the beast
Beat the beast
Beat the beast
Earning scars all over my skin
My heart in a frantic sprint
When did I stop hearing carols?
When did she start acting feral?
Beat the beast
I’ll hate you forever
If you tear me from her
I’ll owe you forever
Please be my saviour
