toe to toes

Mastodon

I have seen this once before
I have felt these curtains
I have known you for so long
When we ran in circles

For our sake
I will wait for you

Out of unknown, into the darkness
I came toe to toe and face to face with the beast
You knew me by my name, it was surprising
You knew everything about me that I despised

I have seen this once before
I have felt these currents
I have known you for so long
When we ran in circles

He had gold, He had silver
He had all the women and wine that you'll ever need
Just one thing, a prick of the finger
Spell your name in the sand and do it with your own blood

Bitten by the fangs of circumstance
I want my invention
We are all evil
Murdered in the [?]
[?] of my fortune
Bitten by my fangs

Gave me a smile, gave me a whisper
Lay me down in leaves to watch me sleep
I'll play the fool and I'll play the sinner
I'll play the part of me that no one wanted to see
