[Verse 1] I let the beast in too soon I dont know how to live without my hand on his throat I fight him always and still Oh darling, its so sweet You think you know how crazy How crazy I am You say you dont spook easy You wont go But I know And I pray that you will [Chorus] Fast as you can, baby Run, free yourself of me Fast as you can [Verse 2] I may be soft in your palm But Ill 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 [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] Sometimes my mind dont shake and shift But most of the time, it does And I get to the place where Im begging for a lift Or Ill drown in the wonders and the was And Ill be your girl, if you say its a gift And you give me some more of your drugs Yeah, Ill be your pet, if you just tell me its a gift Cause Im tired of whys, choking on whys Just need a little because, because [Verse 3] I let the beast in and then I even tried forgiving him, but its too soon So Ill fight again, again, again, again, again And for a little while more Ill soar the uneven wind, complain and blame the sterile land But if youre getting any bright ideas, quiet dear Im blooming within [Chorus] Fast as you can, baby, wait, watch me Ill be out Fast as I can, maybe late but at least about Fast as you can, leave me, let this thing run its route [Outro] Fast as you can Fast as you can Fast as you can Fast as you can
fast, why, baby, scratch, soon
