Mythical Beast Lyrics

i remember in the old days
when life was good, i walked with god
in the autumn the days of plenty
turned to days of none
my life was done
but i have captured
a mythical beast
and she will never be released
through the winter chains of pillars
of boyhood doubt, my cross threw out
i cursed the heavens
before the adam in the great design
the shame was mine
but i have captured
a mythical beast
and she will never be released
