The Beast Inside

I read you, and I´m a gentle soul. I listen to your magical voice, and I get high on your fairytales. But whenever I look at you, I start to crave you without an end, going ravenous, ah these eyes ...

… that´s when the lust kicks in, ah these eyes, that´s where my demons hide, with the beast inside, I want to save you my saint, save you from loneliness, save you from brokenness, I want to save your light …

When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see are all made of gold
When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all, and the blood's run stale

I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat, look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close, it's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

At the curtain's call
It's the last of all
When the lights fade out, all the sinners crawl
So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out at the mess you've made

Don't wanna let you down
But I am hell-bound
Though this is all for you
Don't wanna hide the truth
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat, look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close, it's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go
Your eyes, they shine so bright
I wanna save that light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how

When you feel my heat, look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close, it's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

I deplore such a brokenness, a state of strong emotional pain that tries to stop me from living a normal or healthy life. I´m just a simple man, not David. I acknowledge my beautiful brokenness and my not really desperate need for healing. Do you? And that´s why we have met and fallen into each other´s arms, to love, to continue God´s love, baby!

Brokenness, in God's eyes, is being so crushed by the sin and darkness of the world that we recognize there is no place to turn but to God. David's life and brokenness is a perfect example. In 2 Samuel 12 and Psalm 51 we see it: the beauty of brokenness.

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

While brokenness is not pleasant or comfortable, it has the great ability to drive us weak deeper into the strong arms of God. Paul even sees it as some sort of gift or offering to others. It is a reminder of our need to depend utterly on the resources of our God. It is a reminder that we always stand in need of grace.

Brokenness is a condition in which something is badly damaged and unable to continue or work correctly. The world is full brokenness, of us the orbiting people. Having so many people in its jail is a sign of the brokenness of the system. That´s why we are where we are, how we are. But, however burdened, we are free, baby, love set us free, the truth set us free, our love set us free. So we are free to love, free to love each other, free to love God, free to love whoever we please. It´s meant to be like this. The Beauty And The Beast.

God transforms the most broken, sinful moments of our lives into something that give Him glory. He cleans us up, clothe us in his righteousness, helps us gain clarity and focus, and put us on the right path. We see this in the powerful story of Saul on the road to Damascus (Acts 9). I´ve been there. It´s just I´ve never persecuted Jesus and His disciples, Jesus is my only superhero since my childhood, I´ve always been eliminating Satan and his ever-so-multiplying minions.

Brokenness is a blessing because it puts us on the road to a breakthrough. Jesus said, “Blessed are the poor in spirit” (Matthew 5:3). Those who are spiritually broken will be blessed because they will see God, and God's power will flow through their lives. You see me and I see you. You love me and I love you. What else are we supposed to do?

… that´s when the lust kicks in, ah these eyes, that´s where my demons hide, with the beast inside, I want to save you my saint, save you from loneliness, save you from brokenness, I want to save your light … these lips I need to kiss …
