Dr. Beaf Great EP, Brooding, very mournful and melancholy with exquisite production touches expanding the feel of the album. Well done! Favorite track: Run.

Puppet 04:04
There are worse crimes than loyalty Nothing, nothing made me more aware, than you love. You shook me and shook me until I froze Still, I was aware of what I was falling, falling into line, Under your spell I’m under your spell You could say, anything that you want to me And I’d believe it You could do, anything that you want to me Because I feel it I feel your love in me I feel your love in me I am not a puppet But that doesn’t mean I’m not living the life That I chose for me Somehow, somehow you chose it for me When my spirit was down You chose it for me You could say, anything that you want to me And I’d believe it You could do anything that you want to me Because I feel it I feel your love in me I feel your love in me I feel your love in me I feel your love in me

Lift Me Up 03:31
You look how I feel When there's no one around When the pieces fall Let them fall to the ground You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up Our bones, collecting dust left in a museum haunted, by lustful words yet they keep my spirit alive You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up Words escape my heart They poor into you I long, for someone like you To take me away To hold me, to make me feel Like I'm brand new You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up You lift me up (You lift me up ) You lift me up (You lift me up) You lift me up (You lift me up )

Human 04:16
He shook my hand He was trembling again Then I left on a cloud The one you made yourself There came a time That I couldn't lie to myself, anymore The funny thing is I can't remember his name, any more My feet won't let me dance, no more It's like I've walked this road before But I can't dance anymore We, made love It was real It was human It was real It was human Human
5.
Run 04:40
You said you had enough You're sick of their lives Your words struck me down Like lightning the sound Is there any other way? I can see it in your eyes... Hurt! By the thunderous lies We'll run, we'll run We'll run... The rain, it began to poor Thunder took hold Took hold of my mind There was darkness in the air We were struck by the light Of the sound, floating through the air We'll run We'll escape together We'll keep our heads low We'll run We'll pretend and pretend That our love Doesn't need to show Baby, we wait for the night But I don't want to be cold No, I don't want to be cold I don't want, us to be the freak I want to be, free to love tonight Tonight... We'll run, we'll run We'll run... We'll run We'll pretend and pretend That our love Doesn't need to show We'll run We'll escape together We'll keep our heads low
