Lagu ini bertajuk ‘Beast’ yang video musiknya disutradarai oleh David Thorne. Lagu ini ditulis sendiri oleh David Archuleta bersama Cardin McKinney dan Joe Tounge.
Pelantun ‘Crush’ ini memberikan genre anthem synth-pop yang melankolis sekaligus cathy pada lagu barunya ini. Video musiknya baru saja ia rilis melalui akun YouTube resminya pada 2 November 2021.

I don’t wanna be the bad guy
I wanna be the one who’s gonna chase all the demons away
Be the hero in the dark night
But there’s a side of me that you haven’t seen
There’s a villain that’s hidden
Intimacy is the trigger (and I can’t control it)
There’s a monster that’s sleeping
If he wakes up, he’s a killer (You’re too close)
I know there’s a beast inside that I have to hide
But it won’t leave me alone
Clawing through my skin at night overtakes my mind
And it just won’t let me go
So maybe you should run away (run, run away)
I’ll tear your heart out if you stay with me
You’re gonna see the beast inside (beast inside)
You’re gonna see the beast inside (beast inside of me)
Girl you hit me like a full moon
I feel it in my blood every time I get close to you
Scared of the damage that I could do
And you’ll hate me forever now, baby
I’ll turn you into the villain (villain)
Blame you for things that you didn’t (even do)
Another innocent victim (victim)
A tragic story gets written (we both lose)
I know there’s a beast inside that I have to hide
But it won’t leave me alone
Clawing through my skin at night overtakes my mind
And it just won’t let me go
So maybe you should run away
I’ll tear your heart out if you stay with me
You’re gonna see the beast inside (beast inside)
You’re gonna see the beast inside (beast inside of me)
Dangerous
Don’t wanna hurt you
But I’m dangerous
Dangerous
Stay away, I’ll hurt you ‘cause I’m dangerous
(I know that I’m dangerous)
I know there’s a beast inside that I have to hide
But it won’t leave me alone
Clawing through my skin at night overtakes my mind
And it just won’t let me go
So maybe you should run away (run, run away)
I’ll tear your heart out if you stay with me
You’re gonna see the beast inside (beast inside)
You’re gonna see the beast inside (beast inside of me)
Dangerous
Don’t wanna hurt you
But I’m dangerous (I know that I’m)
Dangerous
Stay away, I’ll hurt you ‘cause I’m dangerous
(I know that I’m dangerous)
