[Verse 1] Saw you in the mirror frame Yellow eyes in my own face Teeth behind a borrowed smile Breathing like a storm in space Claw marks in the bedsheet seams Mud across the window glass Woke up with a bitter taste And dirt beneath my nails at last [Chorus] Moon beast Howling in my bloodstream Crawling out the cracks of my cool routine Moon beast Gnawing on my daydreams Every time it’s quiet you come for me Moon beast Moon beast You’re the wild that I can’t unsee [Verse 2] Phone lights up I leave it dark Chewing on a stranger’s name Every rule I ever wrote Curling at the edge in flame You say “baby Just come home” I can’t tell you where I’ve been Footprints in a stranger’s yard Soft and deeper than my skin [Chorus] Moon beast Howling in my bloodstream Crawling out the cracks of my cool routine Moon beast Gnawing on my daydreams Every time it’s quiet you come for me Moon beast Moon beast You’re the wild that I can’t unsee [Bridge] Maybe I was meant to break Maybe all this hunger’s mine You can call it curse or fate I just call it staying alive [Chorus] Moon beast Howling in my bloodstream Crawling out the cracks of my cool routine Moon beast Gnawing on my daydreams Every time it’s quiet you come for me Moon beast Moon beast You’re the wild that I can’t unsee
