Face Time Police performing "Of Man and Monster"

Face Time Police performing "Of Man and Monster" from their debut EP The Definition of Deviation: http://www.facetimepolice.com/mp3

See the full "Live at Lincoln Hall" series on this channel or at: http://www.facetimepolice.com/live

This song was partly based on/inspired-by the "Hellsing" anime series. There is a scene early on in the series where a girl was held against her will by one monster and saved by another. ;) We used it as a parallel/metaphor for a real-life situation involving a girl and an over-controlling boyfriend.

lyrics:

verse 1:
temptations running high with a moonlit sky
the army you arrived with now is the enemy
time to say goodbye, my friend, my love
your perfection is what motivates my lust (my friend, my love)
your innocence has driven you to trust in the monster you don't know I can be
look at the red in my eyes
maybe you will see eternity instilled in me
what it's like to live until infinity
soon you will know...

chorus:
lift you from this wretched moment to another day
holding on to what was once your will to walk away
tomorrow we will curse the sunlight of a different day
bold enough to be the monster
was I not your favorite mistake?

verse 2:
I am the master, the beast, the fight
these bullets may kill, but you bring me to life
this is now where you're supposed to close your eyes
the silhouette among the silver locked in sight
from your virgin caress to my venomous bite

[chorus]

bridge 1:
come on, come on, show me what you are
under the blood red stars
what are you waiting for?
just remember the choice was always...

verse 3:
yours, not mine to make
what I'll take from you, I know I can't repay
and tomorrow won't feel the same as today
but at least you'll be alive when your heart has lost its way
I know you don't want to die tonight

[chorus]

bridge 2:
there's no sanctuary from the demons in control
I am your salvation, I will break you from this hold

[bridge 1]
