the children of pride

the wild beast seems quite gentle in it's cage
the monster has a smiling gentle face
within there rumbles still a hidden rage

the words that seem so simple on the page
leave in the mind a sharply wicked trace
the wild beast seems quite gentle in it's cage

each giant that we see upon the stage
is made of many parts that interlace
within there rumbles still a hidden rage

we need it seems a larger macrophage
to hold the dread infection in its place
the wild beast seems quite gentle in it's cage

what matters if some maleficent mage
controls with darkest power the interface
within there rumbles still a hidden rage

the veriest fool and also the greatest sage
will in its grip accept his role with grace
the wild beast seems quite gentle in it's cage
within there rumbles sill a hidden rage
