I let the beast in too soon, I don't know how to live    Without my hand on his throat; I fight him always & still    O darling, it's so sweet, you think you know how crazy    -How crazy I am    You say you don't spook easy, you won't go, but I know    And I pray that you will    -Fast as you can, baby run-free yourself of me    Fast as you can    I may be soft in your palm but I'll soon grow    Hungry for a fight, and I will not let you win    My pretty mouth will frame the phrases that will    Disprove your faith in man    So if you catch me trying to find my way into your    Heart from under your skin    -Fast as you can, baby scratch me out, free yourself    Fast as you can    Fast as you can, baby scratch me out, free yourself    Fast as you can    Sometimes my mind don't shake and shift    But most of the time, it does    And I get to the place where I'm begging for a lift    Or I'll drown in the wonders and the was    And I'll be your girl, if you say it's a gift    And you give me some more of your drugs    Yeah, I'll be your pet, if you just tell me it's a gift    'cause I'm tired of whys, choking on whys,    Just need a little because, because    I let the beast in and then;    I even tried forgiving him, but it's too soon    So I'll fight again, again, again, again, again.    And for a little while more, I'll soar the    Uneven wind, complain and blame    The sterile land    But if you're getting any bright ideas, quiet dear    I'm blooming within    Fast as you can, baby wait watch me, I'll be out    Fast as I can, maybe late but at least about    Fast as you can leave me, let this thing    Run its route    Fast as you can (repeat 4 times)
