The summer is haunted, undercover
But up on the outside you come through
Better to know it than ignore it
To walk in the high tide in your shoes

You peel away
Underneath the monster is a good man in you
You peel away
Underneath the child is an old man getting through

Give in to it, so you can move it
Setting it all right, the hurt is gone
Open your own eyes, awake the traveller
Out in the moonlight, you will move on

You peel away
Underneath the monster is a good man in you
You peel away
Underneath the child is an old man getting through
You lead the way
Underneath the beast, there is an angel in you
And you peel away
Underneath the monster is a good man in you
