Once I met a savage beast
He made me fall in love
Everyone feared for me
They wanted to protect me
I needed protection from myself
Who loves a beast?
Who thinks he is harmless?

Once I met a savage beast
Who fought for me
Who defended me with his life
Who protected me to no end
Who believed in all the good I am
—-
Once I met a savage beast
Who was taken away from me
By his Pride for they feared for him
They feared what he was turning into
For he was no longer the beast they used to know
He was more forgiving, a bit respectful and caring
Once I was loved by a savage beast.
