Aphrodite for lost souls

 
 
 Aphrodite barters for lost souls.  
 A facade of sunshine from twilight unfolds.    
 The siren sings songs in Lucifer's name  
 Angels fall from Heaven like a downpour of rain.    
 
What dreams you've suffered from another's sleep.    
Won't save your eyes from the ghosts that you seek  
Taste the wine,  bare forbidden fruits  
Say your prayers,  still the joke is on you.    
 
Save the child, just to sacrifice yourself  
The fork in the road leads straight to Hell.    
Hear their whispers,  feel their screams  
Tune it out,  it's not what it seems  
 
Tell the lies,  forget the truth  
speak her name,  she's coming for you.    
 
 Aphrodite barters for lost souls  
"name your price"  you've already been sold.    
Feel their whispers,  hear their screams  
What dreams might find you from another's sleep?    
 
If you die before they wake  
For your soul,  it's already too late.
