The lyrics to Pentatones's song, "The Beast", are haunting and enigmatic. The song speaks of a beast, a creature that watches and waits in the shadows, luring its prey with its hungry eyes. The beast is both alluring and dangerous, and the lyrics suggest that there is an element of seduction in its behavior.
The song's chorus repeats the phrase "The beast is here," drawing attention to the creature's presence and power. The lyrics speak of how the beast is always watching and waiting, never leaving its prey alone. The beast is described as a creature of desire, one that is always hungry and never satisfied.
The lyrics suggest that the beast is a metaphor for something deeply human, that our own desires and appetites can be just as all-consuming and dangerous as any fictional monster. The song's atmospheric music and vocals create a sense of tension and unease, capturing the feeling of being stalked by an unseen predator.

THE BEAST
The beasts that are coming 'round to play
Never gone just altering in shape
I beat them, I wear a scraggy coat
I live amongst them all
The beasts that are coming 'round to play
Never gone just altering in shape
I beat them I wear a scraggy coat
I live amongst them all
Cuddling bear in my lap
Lick my milk and the rest
Branches creak in the cradle woods
Who's afraid, who's the wolf
You are
You are
You are
You are the beast
They beat you, their will is to repay
A reward for something that can't wait
In darkness the hunt is for the fierce
When shivers hit, the debt the weight
The beasts that are coming round to play
never gone just altering in shape
I beat them, I wear a scraggy coat
I live amongst them all
Cuddling bear in my lap
Lick my milk and the rest
Branches creak in the cradle woods
Who's afraid, who's the wolf
You are
You are
You are
You are the beast
You are
the beast that is coming 'round to play
Never gone just altering in shape
I beat you, I wear a scraggy coat
I live amongst your fur
You are
You are
You are
You are the beast
