"Stubborn Beast" lyrics

"Stubborn Beast"

Such a stubborn beast is best away from the flock
You've enough pride for all of us
As you wander your island unborn and unloved
You set fire to the bridges that you were carried across

But those letters, they're all strewn across your bedroom floor
Such beautiful words, but you just can't remember who they're for

Such a frightened fawn is best far from the road
No, you wouldn't want to expose your flesh to your bones
But you can't help but notice all those letters

Well, they're all strewn across your bedroom floor
Such beautiful words, but you just can't remember who they're for

By your window sits a picture filled with strangers
Always looking down on you, always sticking around for you
They were always looking around for you
Never able to find you
