Pet of the Creature (2.0)

[Verse] A shadow moves beneath the floor It scratches It whispers It wants more Eyes like embers Glowing red Is it alive or is it dead [Chorus] Pet of the creature It waits for the night It feeds on fear It hides from the light Pet of the creature Chained but free A monster’s pet or a pet of me [Verse 2] It curls around my shaking feet A heartbeat thuds An endless beat Its breath is cold Its teeth are sharp It hums a tune A ghostly harp [Prechorus] Is it a curse or is it a gift Does it drag me down or give me a lift [Chorus] Pet of the creature It waits for the night It feeds on fear It hides from the light Pet of the creature Chained but free A monster’s pet or a pet of me [Bridge] The leash is thin It might just snap A ticking clock A thunderclap It guards my soul It bites my hand Together we fall Together we stand
